Vibrations of the spirit resonate through life itself, and shape the connection and balance between land, water, air, fire, animals and humanity. The knowledge and stories passed down from my father and mother have enriched my life and increased my human essence. They have allowed me to understand the importance and complexity of all things living and breathing together through spirit, lore, bloodlines, sound, movement and language.
Ancient Vibrations combines contemporary and traditional art styles to reflect stories and vibration through dimensional, two dimensional, topographical styles.
