1.5 Beyond the Beyond with Markus Scott-Alexander

Markus Scott-Alexander is an expressive arts therapist and founder of World Arts Organization and is based in Edmonton, Alberta. As a therapist and educator, he’s interested in how art honours the differences between people while holding space for the creative spirit that is essential to all humans. He believes creativity can help us live our ordinary lives in Unordinary ways. Markus is also the author of the recent book: Expressive Arts Education and Therapy: Discoveries in a Dance Theatre Lab Through Creative Process-based Research. To be in a workshop with Markus is to experience something active, dynamic and truly touching. I asked Markus to join me in conversation because I wanted to know if that work was still possible in the midst of a pandemic. In our conversation we touch on avoiding burnout and the intimacy and resonance that is possible on Zoom. Markus offers up a new definition of holding therapeutic space and how it still exists in digital therapy. Markus' Website Markus' Instagram
