Dancing in the Cosmos: Toward Liberating Theological Models for Children's Sexuality and Spirituality Megan Clay

This body of work is born out of personal experience and is expressed through the language of art as an embodied narrative. It examines Christianity to see what can be offered to the girl child in the area of sexuality and spirituality. After exploring these dualistic models to see what can be salvaged from its history, the investigation moves toward asking what can the interdisciplinary mingling of the new cosmology with feminist theology and art offer girls in relation to body integrity and self esteem. Furthermore can this interdisciplinary mingling offer bigger, bolder and more creative spaces in which to grow empowered and passionate girl children.
