<p className="text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">
In the film, video portraits capture the unique moment when a person shares a secret,
summarized in a long-hidden word or phrase that is then painted onto their skin. Each of
these powerful moments releases a generous contribution to the world, a buoyant reminder
of living fully and the beauty and strength that comes from facing and embracing our
vulnerability.

{/* Origin Story */}
<div className="bg-gray-50 py-16">
<div className="mx-auto max-w-3xl px-4 space-y-6 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">
<p>
Many years ago during a silent retreat I had an epiphany. I realized that the greatest
treasure I hold is buried deep inside &mdash; the thing I least want anyone to know about.
This ultimately birthed the <em>In Your Own Skin</em> Project.
</p>
<p>
Social worker Bren&eacute; Brown, along with neurobiologists and other researchers,
discovered that if you want to look at happiness you need to look at shame. To help free
myself and others from our shame, so we can live more authentic, resilient lives, I went
out into the world, armed with body paints and video and still cameras, to record people
discussing their hidden truths. I then painted that word onto their skin and photographed
their portraits.
</p>
<p>
While creating the project, I met with over 200 people from more than 30 countries and
all walks of life. Each of these powerful moments releases a generous contribution to the
world, a buoyant reminder of living fully and the beauty and strength that comes from
facing and embracing our vulnerability. This in turn grows our intimacy and presence.
</p>
<p>
Each photograph and recorded exchange documents a personal story that resonates across
cultures. We find what we have in common, what makes us human.

<div className="mx-auto max-w-3xl px-4 py-12 space-y-6 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">
<p>
As an artist and an art therapist, I have specialised all of my professional life in the
masks we wear and the taboos that no-one wants to speak about &mdash; what American writer
Robert Bly calls &ldquo;our shadow bags&rdquo;. These more hidden aspects of ourselves hold
great treasures and vitality when they are freed. We are a living paradox and the sooner we
learn to dance with this, the sooner we can live more fully alive.
</p>
<p>
The project is made up of hundreds of individual images but they are all part of one giant
human poem &mdash; all unique, but all part of the same poem forest. In the 1950s, it was
discovered that a variety of Aspen tree, the Pando, while it looks like tens of thousands
of trunks and crowns, is actually one living organism &mdash; they all have the exactly the
same DNA. So while we see them as many, they are actually one. Just like us.
</p>
<p>
We are living in unprecedented times of political, economic, ecological, social and
emotional transition. <em>In Your Own Skin</em> portraits and stories reveal a living
transformative story in a world searching for hope, wisdom and resilience &mdash; what keeps
us connected and whole from the inside out.
