STARRY PATH CHEMIN DES ÉTOILES

Thinking pictures

What spiritual child am I? How can traditional limitations and structures in existence be overcome? What does the good life mean in contemporary Europe?

Since 2016, poetic images and thoughts, so-called “thinking pictures”, have been created at various points along the Starry Path. These are each developed from the spirit or theme of a particular detail of one of the recorded medieval buildings along the way. In an artistic and poetic manner, a contemporary interpretation is created from the impulses of the respective location.

With the thinking pictures, visitors are invited to sense an inner connection between the times and living spaces that can be thought about further. Essentially, the thinking pictures invite visitors to face the challenges of life and its puzzles.

The thinking pictures are experimental in nature. They aim to open up perspectives from a different angle and form a further level of understanding of the European model project “Starry Path/Chemin des étoiles”.

New (further)thinking can arise when people engage with the impulses of the places and the thinking pictures and meditate on them while walking.

So far, thinking pictures can be discovered at the following locations:
