ABSTRACT: This is a heuristic research project that explores the qualities that are inherent in the spirit of the Clown. It includes a review of the qualities of the Clown figure, as they appear in different cultures, in literature. For the purposes of my research I present Processwork theory and concepts that are relevant to my study. I present how the spirit of the Clown emerges in me,in my personal history and childhood stories, and how it helps me to facilitate my challenges. I present my in depth introspective explorations of the qualities of the Clown spirit using Processwork methods and tools. I find that the core quality of the Clown is what I call creative emptiness; and I suggest that every other expression of this spirit rises from this core quality. Finally, I suggest that the creative emptiness of the Clown is a unifying field, which
constitutes an essential attitude towards the world.
