Purpose

SCHLESIEN – Earth Unearth Artist Retreat provides artists with dedicated time and space to work on their creative projects in a restful and inspiring environment close to nature. It offers artists the opportunity to pursue their range of expression, experiment, and develop projects without the constraints of a specific theme or program. The artist retreat aims to cultivate creativity and provide a change of scenery, allowing for new perspectives and connections to naturally arise in the artist's work. It is open to creative practitioners at any stage of their practice and does not have any specific requirements, providing artists with the freedom to explore their artistic development.

Vision

SCHLESIEN – Earth Unearth Artist Retreat connects you with the sacred inside you, the purest, simplest truth of consciousness.

Values

Reciprocity with the Earth

Reciprocity with the earth is a mutual exchange. We give back to the environment as much as we take. This can involve reducing our carbon footprint, supporting conservation efforts, and reconnecting with the natural world.

 Equality and Justice for all Beings

All humans are born free and equal in dignity and rights, endowed with reason and conscience, and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

Diversity

We respect individuality and value linguistic, ideological, ethnic, and cultural differences. Art is a universal language that unites, heals, and transforms.

Care and Connection

We value building meaningful relationships between our co-workers and visitors, recognising that people have unique needs and access points, and they are experts in determining what care looks like for them. We aim to create a thriving ecosystem where we support each other's well-being.
