Gentle tools is a web aggregator for all the content that is found organically through my everyday consumption of art and media. Typically these pieces of content are things that I feel are meaningful in the process of learning more about holistic well-being, outward acceptance, creative inspiration, and radical reimagining of our current society.
Sam Taylor
New content will be added to gentle tools on a regular basis.
On September 10, a corresponding gentle space opened at The Anderson. Gentle space is a sanctuary of softness devoted to rest and self-guided exploration of gentle tools. This on-site experience will be available through October 3.
This project was supported by an Anderson Web-Publishing Grant. Sam Taylor, an undergraduate student focusing on Product Design in the Interdisciplinary Studies Program at VCU, is a recipient of this web-based grant initiative, created as a spin-off to the traditional Anderson Publishing Grant opportunity during Spring 2020.
