This art form is inspired by the Indigenous people of my area and their history and teachings connected to the sacred Sun Dance. It is about honoring where we all come from while drawing on the strength and wisdom of our ancestors to help us navigate an ever-changing world. Through themes of survival, renewal, and spiritual healing, this art encourages all generations to learn more about Native heritage, family, and community, and to discover how these teachings can guide, strengthen, and heal us in our lives today.
Everyone is born with innate seeds of peace and compassion. Many of us simply need a guiding light to reconnect inwardly - to cultivate and nurture our own inner garden.
Alongside this Indigenous foundation, I explore ancestral wisdom from Eastern philosophies and how these teachings have traveled, blended, and evolved across cultures. I envision what can emerge when these traditions meet the wisdom of the West - creating new pathways toward understanding, healing, and connection, and helping us reconnect with the deeper gifts within ourselves, our communities, and our sacred nature.
Imagining a new form of meditative art resembles the mandala theme found in Buddhism. Traditionally, mandalas are intricate designs that serve as spiritual teachings, representing the universe and aiding in meditation. In this approach, I explore the incorporation of Indigenous understandings of the unity of nature, spirit, and humanity as a fundamental aspect of the creative process. This integration facilitates an expansion of one’s consciousness through the expressive powers of abstraction. Ultimately, this art form serves as a portal of awareness into the infinite.

Experience art within attunement of oneness.
An interplay of consciousness and existence attuned in the art of creation.
