Rocking the boat, shaking shit up, and challenging artists to dig into their self-narratives and rewrite a mythology that transforms the way they live their lives. Art comes to us from the realm of matter and we need voices unafraid to dig into their bodies and unearth what they find there.

self mythology (aka. bio)
Hi, I'm Sasha. Half-feral, neurodivergent, photographer and earth mystic with a chronic thirst to go deeper. I have a BA in English with emphasis on psychology and mythology and I will likely spend the rest of my life studying the intimate weaving between those three fields and marinating in my own personal folklore. I've trained in Human Design and Astrology and believe that potent self-mythology is the key to powerful art-making.
I believe art is a sacred practice of attunement, to ourselves, and to our communities. Art is a sacred space of healing and connection and artists are catalysts for systemic change. I want to start a revolution inside of you that alchemizes how we view ourselves and how we tell stories.
