Howling with artist and author Enrique Martinez Celaya about the book Tending the Fire: Creativity, Purpose, and the Unfolding Self co-authored with Jungian psychoanalyst James Hollis

“As an artist, the willingness to challenge received ideas and certainties is essential, and while it carries risks, I was never afraid of them. Art has nurtured this confidence while keeping it from hardening into hubris. In different but connected ways, art and the world have revealed the beauty at the heart of things, the interplay of tenderness and destruction, and the sustaining tension between transience and permanence. In doing so, they have shown me that questioning is not mere defiance, not a restless urge to reinvent the wheel or reject meaning, but a pursuit of something that endures both time and scrutiny.” — Enrique Martínez Celaya

Enrique Martínez Celaya is an artist, author, and former scientist whose work encompasses painting, sculpture, drawing, immersive environments, essays, poetry, and fiction. His practice examines the experience of the individual amid social, ethical, and existential conditions, and the capacity of art to widen perception and lend structure to meaning. These concerns take form through materials ranging from oil paint and bronze to tar, blood, and sugar, as he investigates the nature of art, memory, exile, and the legacies of history.

Howling with activist and educator David Dean about his essay and forthcoming book entitled Roots Deeper Than Whiteness.

“Roots Deeper than Whiteness is written to fundamentally transform the practice of white antiracism in the United States by offering white Americans a pathway to reclaim the very things that “whiteness” was designed to take from us: rich ancestral lineages of resistance to domination and clear knowledge of our profound stake in multiracial movement-building to challenge an economic system that sacrifices life on the altar of profit. 

For too long these themes have not been present in mainstream models of anti-racism education or in well-known texts in this literary genre. Too often, white progressive readers are left with oversimplified understandings of white privilege, the sense that they have no meaningful lineage to hold on to, and little capacity to organize their communities from a place of compassion or mutual interest. Right-wing nationalist elites have also exploited these weaknesses by telling their white base that racial justice will cost them their jobs and their sense of who they are. We are in dire need of a new and empowering narrative that helps those of us who are white fully understand our past, roots us in richer soil, and unveils our fundamental belonging in multiracial struggle for a better world.  

Roots Deeper than Whiteness answers this call. It offers those of us who are white a rooted identity, one tied to a deeper understanding of our history, that can give us the inner strength and political clarity we need to become genuine partners in the transformation of this society.”

— David Dean

Howling with writer, teacher and archetypal psychologist Michael Sipiora about the political relevance of James Hillman’s archetypal psychologicy and what it means to be a psychological citizen

“Speaking out of the Ancient, Renaissance, and Romantic traditions that animate his archetypal psychology, Hillman calls for each therapist’s room to become a cell of revolution, heresy, and beauty rather than a globule of self-improvement; a place where imagination moves from building castles in sand to constructive visions for the real city; a place of outrage at social injustice rather than adaptation; a place of mourning over ecological destruction rather than of working through depression; a place of shame over failed participation in the present rather shame over past abuses to oneself; and of cosmic involvement rather than of transference and countertransference entanglements.”
