REDEFINING SPIRITUALITY THROUGH SACRED ART + RITUAL.
"One of our biggest gifts as humans in a world of suffering is to create. For we are innovators and healers with more power than we often give ourselves credit for. And one of our greatest challenges is embracing our responsibility in wielding that very gift." -Auriel

"A GREAT DAY FOR FREEDOM"
Canvas, CD, Prose, + Exhibits.
The Wall was vast between US AND THEM, so I implored them to SPEAK TO ME- to please KEEP TALKING.
They said that they had A MOMENTARY LAPSE OF REASON and couldn’t TAKE IT BACK, but they no longer wanted to be ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL of the status quo, and COMFORTABLY NUMB.
I said that we are all LEARNING TO FLY here, and we can let the sleeping DOGS OF WAR lie in the beds they have made, for THE SHOW MUST GO ON!
I reassured them that although we may be POLES APART and LOST FOR WORDS at times, left wondering “IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE who understands?”,
I have HIGH HOPES that THE HAPPIEST DAYS OF OUR LIVES are yet to come; OUTSIDE THE WALL, and on the other side of SORROW.

A two-part tribute to the iconic band Pink Floyd and dedicated to my father, Rick, who introduced me to them at a young age, along with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Their music has taken on several different meanings as I have grown.
So naturally, when presented with the opportunity to showcase these pieces locally and internationally (for the Ultra Hive CD), I couldn't pass it up.
The canvas piece was featured in The Hive Gallery's "Sound Transfigured" show for July 2025. See CV for more details.
