Storytelling — How do you tell your story?
You can tell a story in different ways, through all of our senses.
How do you tell yours?
Let me show you some story-telling I witnessed in one day in London last week, then a TED talk I recently saw that is masterful in this regard.
First, on a gorgeous summer’s day in London, first I visited the “Monet and Architecture” exhibition at the National Gallery.
Monet is absolutely one of my favourite artists, his mastery of light and colour through his style of oil painting is truly beyond my human understanding. To see his paintings “up close and personal” touches my soul deeply.
Monet tells stories with images, with colours, with brushstrokes… and most of all he is a master of light.
From the National Gallery, I then walked up to Regent Street and joined the “Bring the Noise” Women’s March London. With President Trump visiting the UK and the quality of statesmanship in the UK already depressing me, I knew I’d need to be uplifted by the positivity of the quilt of associations of humans in this march. It was SO uplifting!
There were many placards, this was my favourite.
