Pressed Botanicals: A Creative Floral Preservation Workshop

About the Host

I am a Canadian wilderness alchemist, artist, creative director, product developer, and storyteller. My work weaves together natural materials—animal bones, botanicals, and mixed media—to create sacred objects that hold the spirit of the land. Each piece is part ritual, part relic. My creative process is deeply shaped by my own healing journey: through chronic illness, spiritual awakening, and nervous system collapse. My art is a reclamation of beauty, power, and the regenerative force of nature. Whether in a remote cabin or a luxury retreat, I channel the energy of place into wild-crafted sculptures, sensory rituals, and intimate storytelling. I believe that art and apothecary made in deep relationship with land can offer not only beauty, but transformation.

Travel Locations

I’m very open to international travel and am already planning upcoming time in Europe, including France. I would be excited to align collaborations, residencies, or hosted experiences with these trips, and I’m flexible about integrating Culture Vitale–aligned experiences into destinations I’m already visiting.
