Living London earth from artist neighborhood--to be watered daily and tended with essentila oils, personal footage, 3D ceramic print, iphone with video
A series of rituals that are resurrected through earthwork installations that invoke the early sightings of La Virgen in sacred sites to Gods during the Spanish massacres and genocides in Latin America. These tributes to survival and linked sites of power recall the powerful visions and one's ancestors. Each sight links back to the ritual of building a mound and monumnet to water, healing, intentions burning, full moons, community, and parts of a larger original mythic text relating to land, epigenetics, salve, cleansing, and mothers.
Each iteration is site specific and made of earth local to installation site
we walk the earth to look at La Virgen and gaze
earth enfolds us in life and its scent is primordial in nature
resurrection can begin in intention
