“It absolutely blew me away. It feels simultaneously calm and challenging, its peaceful yet confronting. I felt brave in the space, it’s hard to explain why. I felt that to travel through the space was to embark on an inner journey, a journey of self exploration and I wasn’t sure if I would like what i found but was compelled to jump in regardless, a leap of faith…
To me, it was like a new kind of cathedral, an inclusive, welcoming place that is for everyone and anyone but where you will be challenged and agitated into growth and progress, for your own good and the collective good of society.
A powerful place, a cocoon of change. You are embraced by the paper surroundings , feeling both safe and comforted, reminiscent of the womb, the safe place and also like you need to be conscious and aware, responsive and accountable.”
- Gillian, Templum visitor.
