I started this publication to offer creative engagement with plants and flowers, as a way to reclaim and retrieve what was lost, forgotten or overlooked, plunge into the imaginal dimension, and deepen my relationship to the land I inhabit.
I am a poet and writer trained in creative arts therapies, literature and anthropology. I care about the imagination, as that wild, fertile, pathless land where everything originates and takes root first.
How can you walk into a pathless land?
You make way. This is how the imagination acts: subtle perceiving walks you there. And it doesn’t happen on a linear, already laid-out path.
I am drawn to what is not immediately evident, the unknown and subtle, the mysterious and unstated. As someone who considers writing her medium, I see my task as listening, bringing back and “translating” insight into story and poetry, in a way that tends the dream and deepens intuition and the capacity for vision.
This is why in my creative practice I explore the field of story as something alive and responsive and also facilitate imaginal pathfinding through poetic and narrative journeys that enable you to tap into a relational imaginative space.
Imagination comes before creative output. Imagination is the underlying, generative ground that nourishes everything, including creativity.
It is a force that enables you to sense and dream possibilities into being, and to listen to what already is.
The words, sounds and images that arise from this hidden force are qualitatively different. They are not mere creative products. They are ways of being in relation and holding the tension between the manifest and the un-manifest.
