⦉⦉⦿⦿⦊⦊ The Mothership ⦉⦉⦿⦿⦊⦊

The Mothership is a vessel that guides and carries smaller vessels, usually for the purpose of inquiry and exploration.  It is a concept, which has been used in the artwork of Carly Jo Morgan as a symbol of the collective conscience form, which we, as individuals, draw creativity and inspiration from.  The whole is greater than the sum of all its parts, and as we take direction from the source, we weave a web that operates as a unifying force for all. The “Mother” represents a specific feminine, maternal, intuitive energy. On January 16th, The Mothership calls a group of female artists to come together and form a unique matrix. The ideas and insight that spring from this matrix bring us balance, strength, and renewal. 

Excited to see this curation by The Sacred Door & Dilettante tonight. Below are some pieces from the show.

I began weaving this Prism web in 2011. Dreams, manifestations, and fearlessness led me to this path of creation. This is a visual best of 2013 including 
styling work, vintage shows, art exhibitions, and inspiring trips.

As I reflect on this past year, Nathalie Kelley's feature on 
The Bharani Effect resonates with me. Be a conscious consumer. Empower yourself. Know where your clothing & food comes from. Support local farmers markers. Without being too preachy I share these words from my heart, that they may resonate with you. Together we can create a better future based on our individual consumer decisions.
