The Art of System Intervention
The great systems scientist Donella Meadow’s work reminds us where to apply our energy to have the biggest impact.
One challenge I’ve found is that the highest level work is both the most difficult to do, and the most intangible. Luckily, I’ve found that art is a pretty nice solution to that conundrum- it allows us to communicate at a deep enough level such that we can question the assumptions that create our mindset, and it has a tangible product.
So I ask you, what is your art? How might you elevate your work in the world into an artform, mixing technical proficiency with intuitive flair to produce something that only you can offer?
