Mary inhabits the liminal hinterlands of sensuality and paradox. Though her body of work spans form and genre—she mostly creates through the lens of a poet. Weaving, knitting, spinning and wool have been potent teachers on her path of devotional remembrance. The dynamic tension inherent in fiber arts lives in her heart and hands not just as metaphor, but as deep creational truth that feeds and inspires her research, play, and praxis. As woman, mother, artist and devotee to the mystery— Mary’s work is dedicated to exploring the erotic backwaters of our wild aliveness. Opening to the penetrative pulse of life surging through the terrestrial realm, the sensual unfurling waiting to spring forth when women embody their God-given *permission*, and the integrated spiritual embodiment that this...

Miriam (she/they) has been studying and practicing traditional earth-based skills for 15 years, learning to listen to the land and find magic and beauty where’er she goes. These ancient ways of working closely with the elements illuminate our inter-connectedness with the ecosystems we are directly woven into. Born and raised in a spiritual community on Nisenan land in the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas, spirit and nature connection were intricately woven into Miriam’s early life. She grew up climbing cedar and apple trees on the lands that held her. Days spent exploring the river, running barefoot through the woods: red dirt toes, berry stained fingers, pine tangled hair. This upbringing planted seeds of a lifelong pursuit for connection and collaboration with the plants and creatures...

  Molly is a self-taught woodworker, painter, and Earth artist. Her path to becoming an artist became a journey of remembering and reconnecting to the place within that lives beyond the stories, experiences, and identities of her personal life.
