You are invited to join Our Community Art & Research Forum!

Our Community Forum is the place to be the first to see the art, learn about the research process, ask questions and receive invitations to investigate and share. It is important to have a supportive container to bloom into, especially when the work is so personal and complex.

The hope is that this forum will enhance the ability to uphold the aims of Our Anatomy Project, which are quite lofty. This includes increasing awareness of the issues at hand. As a part of the forum, you will get to learn and share in that process.

To be honest, it isn’t as easy as it may seem to share such intimate work publicly, so I am taking care of this project- the hearts, stories and bodies- by asking to be seen by a closer circle before public release.

The word of the Andean elders is guiding this work and I want to make sure it is landing well, so your feedback is going to be crucial. And, at this point, much of the art work consists of self portraits and personal exploration. I also recently completed an interview with a woman who shared her journey with herpes and wants to create awareness, support and new ways to teach about the role of sensitivity, sovereignty and ritual in our wellness.

Thank you for putting your minds, hearts and spirits on this tender work. xoxo
