Through my art I am healed, and I heal others.

I’m (not just) another f*#%ing artist.  I faced my shit & healed myself after 17 years of debilitating pain, and now I create artwork that helps others do the same.  

ARTIST + PHOTOGRAPHER | AUTHOR | CURATOR

All of my works are originals or limited editions. 

I create a maximum of 13 editions of any single piece. Or just one.

šŸ‘‰Who do I work with?

 

šŸ‘‰What's the 'why' behind my artwork? 

I don't just shoot photos & make art. I have a mission to show others how to face their pain and see themselves for who they really are.


I developed this mission from facing my own debilitating pain every month living in hell with endometriosis for over 17 years.
I was told it was 'all in my head' by multiple doctors, went through surgery, a series of medications, and have actually crossed over to the
other side from the agonizing pain.

After multiple near-death experiences, I reached a point where I knew that I needed to start honoring & listening to my body, and could no
longer hide or be embarrassed if I wanted to truly live.
So in late 2019, I began to unravel all of the medical lies I had been told, educated myself on how women’s hormones actually function, and healed myself.


I learned through my experience that all healing starts with being authentic.


I would come to realize later on that we can’t even recognize what it is that we really want until we experience the unwanted. That
contrast gives birth to us feeling the joy from our own desires.

 


šŸ‘‰ Every Phase Series

As a creative, I was so empowered and inspired by this journey, I decided to begin actually 'living the art.'


I created a 13-year ongoing art series (beginning in April 2021) about my journey called Every Phase – powerfully illustrating how I
healed myself living by the phases of the female hormonal cycle (the infradian rhythm clock).

The accompanying art of each phase metaphorically illustrates the different brain and body chemistry of what's occurring during that particular phase, and reveals how to biohack & leverage this energy in your life.

 This series was inspired by and also serves as a direct response to NFT artist Beeple's $70 million 'Everydays' project:  I decided to create a piece of art from start to completion not every day, but every phase that will continue for the next 13 years.

 

I am actually living the art, so this series is about way more than just healing.  The writing + pieces discuss truth, freedom & our current healthcare & financial system slavery -- and the way out.

Check out the Every Phase VLOG (on my podcast + YouTube) & 'Live the art' with me as I create artwork that illustrates how I healed myself of endometriosis while I live by the phases of the female hormonal cycle. šŸ‘‡

 

 

šŸ‘‰ Face Your Shit, Heal Yourself

 

I went on to self-publish the first year of this series as a printed art book with Augmented Reality (AR) interaction.  The award-winning book captures the first year of the Every Phase series & I have very appropriately titled it, Face Your Shit, Heal Yourself. 

In addition to the book, I have also created an accompanying podcast (same name: Face Your Shit, Heal Yourself or #FYSHY) to help other women dealing with 'chronic' pain and hormonal imbalances by introducing some of the experts and practices that helped me achieve what I thought was impossible. 

 

Facing your Shit & Healing Yourself is more than a podcast. It is a movement. Check out the brief video below to learn more.

In addition to my Every Phase series that will continue until 2033, I have 5 additional visual journeys I have curated, with each body of work to be explored in the galleries & collections below:

THE REBEL THE RAW THE BALLERINA SOUL PORTRAITS THE GARDEN PARTY

 

šŸ‘‰ Scanography

Upon completion of my Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) & my Masters (MA) from SCAD-Atlanta, I invented my own photographic process with scanography. The process I developed started as a mockery of digital photography because I was so pissed about the digital 'takeover'. It also served as a technical tool to help express some of the concepts my work centered around with ballet which was a huge part of my life growing up.

When I decided to make work about my experience in the world of ballet, I thought of the contradicting ideas of degradation, restriction, and freedom. Being constrained by the scanner for these projects, as well as the degrading aspects of digital manipulation, I was able to translate the ‘aesthetic experience’ of ballet into a degraded, virtual one. This allowed people to see a perspective from someone on the inside looking out, instead of the outside world trying to look inward. I wanted the subject to become the ‘negative’ which related to these ideas technically and conceptually. 

You can view examples of the scanography process I created dispersed throughout my work, but specifically concentrated in my 'Things I've left Behind''Scanography Soul Portraits' and 'The Ballerina' Galleries.
