Creative Practice in Men’s Work in The Listening Room HQ

Ralf Peters, Sweets edition, 2025

My latest post in The Listening Room HQ is about what happens when creative practice enters the space of men’s work.

Creative practice has a way of loosening what words alone can’t reach. It’s not about art as product, but about opening. A way men can meet themselves, each other, and others differently.

It’s not theory or performance, it’s a way of grounding, disarming, and opening what’s otherwise hard to reach.

In spirit, it sits not far from Nick Cave’s Red Hand Files, a place where correspondence becomes a kind of soul map. The Listening Room HQ works in a similar way though with men’s practice: gathering fragments, gestures, and creative practice into a field of shared soul work.
