Resumen

This paper explores the ways in which artistic creation and spiritual
search interrelate in the life and work of seven Colombian artists
who took part at the Laboratory of Art and Spirituality in Bogotá
(2022–2023). Based on a hermeneutic analysis of different
narrative and reflexive materials produced by the artists during a
ten-month period of spiritual and artistic exploration, the first
part delineates the artists’ understanding and practice of
spirituality in a plural world. The Discussion section investigates
the connections between their artistic and spiritual practices,
emphasizing their understanding of art as a vehicle for accessing
and communicating spiritual insights. Thus, this work aims at
contributing both to the study of the shapes spirituality takes
today and to the investigation of their relationship to the arts.
