ABSTRACT Combining years as an artist in solitary wilderness sojourns with biomedical and neuroscientific investigation concerning mind/body patterning, the author has blended art and science to reveal existing relationships between form in nature, form in human physiology and behavior, and the forms that are universally present in all alphabets. Her understanding that the artist brings abstraction into form, while the scientist brings form into abstraction, coupled with her experience in diverse world cultures, has prompted her to contemplate the hardwired wisdom of the body as the repository of intrinsic knowledge leading toward health and behavior benefiting the greater good.
