About
I grew up in the Midwest, USA and Earth-based spirituality has always naturally been my worldview and reflected in my art. I found the theology named as Creation Spirituality (CS) by Matthew Fox in the lovely book Original Blessing in summer 2001. After events of 911 I became even more obsessed with "saving the world" (from human-made ecological destruction) and have studied CS intentionally full time since, beginning at UCS (the University of CS) in Oakland, CA in January 2002. I have also studied intensively with Joanna Macy at the Center for Interfaith Relations (CIR) in Louisville and am a regional facilitator the Work That Reconnects (WTR).
I believe CS has a natural goal in the Via Transformativa with conscious work towards wholeness, especially ecojustice. I began to do artwork towards these ends with my 2003 contemporary icon, "Sophia, Divine Wisdom," and most recently with a series of giant puppets which appear at various conferences, demonstrations and parades across the country.
This adventure has been like finding a lost tribe with members around the globe, as well as right here at home in Duluth, MN! I am currently sticking closer to home, developing community seasonal rituals and celebrations.
