About Imago Day

Say Cheese Warhol Style

Imago Dei means “Image of God” or as Rumi said “that sacred earth that is your body …”

I am a visual artist, costume designer, and theologian (aren’t we all? ). I am currently in graduate school pursuing my Master of Theology and the Arts. 

I am married to the love of my life, Matt, a peace activist, fellow theologian, and surprisingly good dancer.

As a recovering haphazard journal-writer, I am trying to commit to visiting this little thought-space daily to document and explore the peaks, valleys and winding trails of my creative journey. There are many reasons for doing this: 1) I want to see where I am going in my artwork and where I have been, 2) I want to take a meditative moment each day to be present to how the mystery of God is dancing in and around me, and 3) I want to fine tune my daily awareness of that of God that is in me, and in you, and in everyone, and in all creation – the Imago Dei – or in this instance the Imago Day!

This third objective has also become the focus of much of my artwork, which centers around themes of justice and transcendence of the oppressed and suffering.

I hope you enjoy reading my “inner thoughts” – well some of my inner thoughts, not all of them, thank godness! – if you don’t enjoy reading them, that’s okay too, but thanks for taking the time to “hear” me!
