Art Class Curator

What happens when you lose the map, the plan, and all your usual tools for navigating life? In this episode of Wrecked by Art, I reflect on the first time I saw Tempest in Yellow by Dorothea Tanning—and how it wrecked me in ways I didn’t understand until years later.I share how this painting collided with my business burnout, my unacknowledged identity shifts, and my deep craving for control and certainty. Paired with a metaphor from Breath of the Wild—wandering through the dust storm with no map and only faint shrine beeps and sword-pointing statues to guide you—this episode is about learning to listen inward. To trust your intuition. To stop outsourcing your wisdom. And to find your way through the creative and spiritual fog, one tiny sacred signal at a time.Mentioned in this episode:Tempest in Yellow by Dorothea Tanning (see image in Substack post)The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the WildMy book: Art Is About Being Whole cindyingram.com/bookHow the education system teaches us to ignore our intuitionBurnout,
