thoughts...

Have you ever wondered why we call the earth, which sustains our lives, ‘dirt,’ which implies something unclean? Perhaps our collective and individual relationships with Earth need healing.

Breathing in - Breathing out - impermanence

Reclamation Installation - BloBack Gallery
November 2024

Gathered here are the disparate elements of my current practice: performative work displayed as a video loop with sound, Earth Flows from the last two years, native plants, and bronze icons. Walking around the gallery, I realized that the work needs more space. This installation feels busy, and I hope to remedy that in the upcoming exhibit at CSU Pueblo's Gallery in Summer 2025. 

time + action + remains = ART

‘How do evolving timelines invite intersections with ecology, expansion, and contraction?’

As an interdisciplinary artist, I explore conversations about spiritual ecology, creating immersive experiences through sculpture, performance, and installation that invite expansive awareness. I aim to create spaces for connection, reflection, and alternate perspectives. I am committed to contributing to a more just and compassionate world.

 

How can art catalyze change and inspire us to reimagine intersections between social and environmental justice and personal and collective change? My work is led by investigative approaches, incorporating locality, clays, found objects, pigments, fibers, plants, film, photography, sound, and light.

‘Can we experience spatial relationships through vibration harmony and dissonance?’

This work centers on curating collaborative ritual performances informed by solastalgia, our experience of climate change. EARTHflows is an ongoing project based on locality, reverence for the natural environment, and community collaboration. It includes EARTHflow Ritual Performances, Earth Experiments, and Ritual Action Flow Paintings.

As director of the ecological art collective SkySoul Studio, I host a platform exploring solastalgia. We are a developing collective of environmentally aware creatives collaborating on investigations into impermanence and ecofeminism. Public engagement in community events offers the potential for reframing ideologies of contraction. Art can unite people, challenge assumptions, and inspire us to envision new possibilities.
