Stories Told to Last
Our Collections
A dive into the stories we look to tell ourselves.
Meaning and the stories we tell are what orient us to what's relevant in our world and how we should navigate it.
Through a multi-dimensional approach, we will look into how meaning gives us agency to orient to the world, the capacity to connect and collaborate with others, connect with reality, and organize the uncertainty of the world into deep patterns of life.
