Mervine Gowry

I stopped trying to become one thing.

HOLIMATHY became the thread connecting my interests, my identity and what I create.

The philosophy

From fragmentation to integration.

HOLIMATHY connects diverse skills, experiences and dimensions of life into a coherent identity and meaningful action — choosing priorities, allowing rest, and letting different interests lead in different seasons.

Distinct materials, one form

A life in seasons.

Different seasons, different questions, the same desire to make a coherent whole.

    Before the language

    Many interests. Frustration. A search for identity and purpose.

    Six months inward

    Introspection: examining what mattered and how my interests could connect.

    HOLIMATHY

    From fragmentation to integration. A philosophy for weaving the threads together.
