When we think of myth, we think polytheistic gods, creation stories, punished mortals, and fantastical beasts. Much like these mythological stories, self-mythology (also referred to as personal mythology) are the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, the world, and our place in it. The Stories We Tell Ourselves: Self-mythology Dream + Workshop will be where we come together to be the authors of ourselves through collective imagining and dreaming.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Six (Culture Push Fellow 2023) is a multi-medium designer, artist, and writer based in Brooklyn, NY. They often explore themes including the concept of self, phenomenology, epistemology, collective imaginaries, and futurity. Interrogating established "realities" against alternative potentialities, their work challenges accepted knowledge, embraces contradictions, and subverts expectations. They encourage individuals to question everything and to seek themselves as valuable sources of knowledge. Six aspires to continuously be the dreamer and the dream, and in doing so, inspire others to be the same.
