The manifesto: LIVE YOUR LIFE.
Wanted to share this beautiful Hafiz poem with you:
The sky
Is a suspended blue ocean.
The stars are the fish that swim.
The planets are the white whales I sometimes
Hitch a ride
On,
The sun and all light
Have forever fused themselves into my heart
And upon my
Skin.
There is only one rule on this Wild Playground,
Every sign Hafiz has ever seen
Reads the same.
They all say,
“Have fun, my dear; my dear, have fun,
In the Beloved’s divine
Game,
O, in the Beloved’s
Wonderful
Game.”
(translated by Daniel Ladinsky)
XO a.

My work catches flame at the intersections of multidisciplinary art, ceremony and ritual, community and connection, improvisation and radical vulnerability.
