I’ve been juried into the upcoming Spring issue of Studio Visit

Published by Zeratha on

My artwork has been selected by a jury to appear in the upcoming Spring issue of Studio Visit. Out of the over 1000 artists that entered I was one of 150 artists chosen. I feel very honored and my confidence meter has gained some fuel 🙂 Studio Visit is a series of juried artist books. They come out quarterly and are received by over 2000 curators, collectors and gallerists throughout the country. Woot! Check out the Studio Visit website where you can view past volumes for free (they are very inspiring and a visual feast for the brain and eyes): www.studiovisitmagazine.com

The past few weeks this sweet little guy #MelloTheStudioCat has been in and out of the vet, as well as my dog Fongito, who just turned 10 a couple weeks ago… Poor fluffernutters! Theyre both gonna be ok though, eventually, with some more treatments and visits. A song for all who breathe through today and for all those who have lost thier breath, a song for today, for love, strength, courage, compassion. #Zeratha_Lotussoul_Studios #MelloTheStudioCat #FongitoTheShadowDog #fluffernutters #persialayan #Frenchbo #vetvisits #equanimous #iamalcina

Phew, that storm was a rough one! This past week school was out for over a week. Many folks in the Portland metro area lost their power/internet, some for days/ongoing. More houseless shelters were open than normal but disappointingly many of them closed before the ice and brutal temps were truly over. There were tragedies and hardships, and dare I say as often seems to be the case, Portland was underprepared for unexpected/intense weather. I found myself having a lot of indoor time this past week and a half to ponder mutual aid, community resilience, climate adaptation/preparedness, and my feelings around all of this. In a time of great uncertainty and unraveling, it can often feel that there is little within our control. Or, our feelings about what is going on in the world can feel like they might drown us. In these times of witnessing all that we are; the IRL heartbreaking genocide, the ridiculous election coming up in the United States, climate catastrophes, and so much more. It is more important now than ever to keep our hearts open and not be consumed in the shadows. To work on managing what is in our sphere of healthy determination and control, while also speaking out and acting upon what isn’t, with the force of our hearts, minds, and souls. Here’s a few things that could help: *Participate (how you’re reasonably able) in this week’s global strike for ceasefire in Gaza *Take a NET training (Neighborhood Emergency Team) with the city of Portland and become a certified NET responder for your neighborhood and community *Take a climate preparedness class, attend an event, volunteer with an organization *Have preparedness plans and supplies in place for your family and know your neighbors *Participate in a group such as those at Good Grief Network to learn heart-based processing techniques for working through the polycrisis individually, and in community *Practice Both/And thinking, learning to hold paradox, to sit with and know two truths at once, to stay open to the magic of emergence. @cascadia_stack has a couple of upcoming related events in Portland! #Zeratha_Lotussoul_Studios #CascadiaStack #ClimateAdaptation #goodgriefnetwork #Portlandstorm

Trying to hold space for the wonders and the horrors. Feeling grief and hope deep in my marrow. Flowing through me with every heartbeat. Bearing witness to myself, spirit, and all that is both alive and dying in these times of upheaval and uncertainty. Weaving threads of Magick, Resistance, Creation, Love. Striving to strengthen Webs of Resilience and Regeneration. Breathing intention into every working of creation. This is a commission I’m currently working on for a neighbor ? I am going to donate a certain part of any commission profit to anti oppression, ceasefire and climate health and justice initiatives and organizations. If you are interested in a personalized magickal shadow box commission piece, hit me up at my website ? #Zeratha_Lotussoul_Studios #Shadowbox #AssemblageArt #MixedMedia #Art #Magick #visionaryart #PsychedelicArtist #Psychedelic #SacredEcology #Regeneration #Resilience #Grief #Ceasefire #ClimateAware #ClimateJustice
