My life's work is with plants, in some way, always.
and...
Plants really are, OUTRAGEOUS!
..shapeshifting,
..time bending,
..universe skipping beings.
They offer up generously their deep wisdom, their own individual expression, their archetype as mirror to our own lives. Plants connect us to our ancestors, to our story and our place in the world across time and space. They do this as elders, inviting us into our own (r)evolution.
Over time, our relationship to plants, trees, animals and other beings, has been quietened...we have been slowly, insidiously walked away from the rest of our kin, ourselves and each other.
We can choose to reclaim these relationships.
The power of plant connection reunites us with nature, and maybe even more importantly, ourselves. A reunion that’s vital for us to restore our intuition, agency, self expression and sustaining commitment to all living things.
It is this reunion that offers a route to connected, joyous & generative world building.
Through ritual & creativity, my practice weaves together plants, movement, costume and ceremony, alchemising plants into medicine, pre~loved and deadstock fabrics into ritualistic and expansive garments, communication into transformation.
These times we're living in need us to get clear about what is ours and what is not, about what we were taught that serves power and oppression, and what we have learned that is true and nourishing and serves the health and wellness of people, plants, animals and earth equally.
We need discernment, and the plants have that by the bucketload.
We need to rediscover our embodied, intuitive, imaginal selves, the self that knows in their bones that we are one with all that is here, all that came before and that will come after.
Plant communication, radical appreciation, dressing up, celebration and self discovery, dreamwork, embodied movement, joyous & riotous self / collective responsibility, creativity and a will to dive into the depths and fly into the stars are what we do here.
In this house of Alchemy, in this house of possibility, in this house of radical, epic transformation.
Are you ready?
