The Altar of Passion

The Altar of Passion is a devotional space for all who have learned to distrust their desire. It is an invitation to remember what makes you feel alive, and to reclaim desire as something sacred rather than shameful.

Within the Altar, passion is honoured as a life force — creative, erotic, emotional, and embodied.

You are invited to reach into the unknown, receive what is offered, and rest. Nothing is required of you.

The Altar includes some of my other artworks, such as fabric banners from the Enchanted Forest of Love, Baby Girl, Cabinet of Hearts, Effigy and Messages From Within.
