The Language of Symbols

Symbols are a language we can all recognise but few of us can read. Over thousands of years, symbols have been used to express the ineffable and to create a bridge between the invisible and visible dimension.


This 3-week course (1 evening per week) will introduce you to symbology - the study of symbols. The course will explore some of the most important symbols of different cultures and reveal deeper layers of meaning in art and architecture.

Topics of the 3 evenings

Introduction to symbology and the universal symbols of numbers, geometrical shapes and nature.
Sacred Art and Symbols of India (Buddhism, Hinduism).
The symbolic dimension in Sacred Architecture.
