Touch Assignment- Subconscious Rules
Subconscious Rules, 6x9 ½ inches, pens on cardstock "Despite the fact that we're territorial creatures who move through the world like small principalities, contact warms us even without our knowing it. It probably reminds us of that time, long before deadlines and banks, when our mothers cradled us and we were enthralled and felt perfectly lovable. Even touch so subtle as to be overlooked doesn't go unnoticed by the subterranean mind" (Ackerman, The Natural History of the Senses, p.123). We are naturally drawn to each other and crave to feel love. Often times our conscious minds are unaware that the love we desire is fulfilling a part of us that remembers what it felt like to be safe in our mother's arms. Our subconscious mind doesn't forget. This goddess of love represents the power of our subconscious mind and our capacity for loving awareness.
