Hi Friendly Soul,
The body is the container for our entire life experience, and it is not right or wrong, it just is.
When we can connect to that, when we can let the body be what it is in all of its wants, movements, needs, sounds, and desires, we can detach from the energy it takes to uphold an identity story around it and instead we can sink deeply into it — in love and acceptance — and transform our relationship with life — be at war, or come home to peace.
As I personally continue to work to embrace my sexuality and free the natural desires that I repressed, watching TV and seeing same sex couples reflected back to me helps me to embody that reality and bring those feelings back to life. I believe a photograph of your ‘naked’ soul can have the same effect, transforming your perspective of who you really are, outside of and beyond the mind chatter, bringing to life your true nature — your inner light.
If you are looking to transform your relationship with your body, this project is for you. Join us on Opening Night to view the previous ‘body’ of work, experience the healing power of engaging with the nude form through art — in community — and choose to embark on your own liberation journey alongside 99 members of your fellow human family.
I believe it’s a powerful time to ~own~ ourselves in every way possible:
Our Wisdom
Our Love
Our Value
Our Light
Our Aliveness
and
most of all
Our Worth
— our worthiness being for no other reason than because we are alive
I believe in a world focused on experiences that deepen and enliven the human experience and I’m so excited to get to do this, with you.

Thank you, for being here!
