Creative Healing

Lia Strell is an artist, film maker and activist. She also feels a deep connection to nature and gardens; the rich soil, edible profusion, and sustainable seeds.

We are Nature. Nature is Us

Gardens remain central in Lia's life. Her new artistic work centers around seed pods, roots and trees. She was entrusted with the gift of a sacred callalioo seed, a fourth-generation land seed, which she nurtures. And, utilizing "the materials of our grandmothers" she creates walking sticks embedded with beautiful natural stones. "When the seeds sprout, this lights me up, creates joy and feelings of abundance. This creative process outshines many conundrums. Some of today's answers are in the Garden. Nature and People working in balance and harmony.
"My art has been evolving since childhood. I recently took a leap of faith by listening to higher wisdom. By exploring beyond my Art I have found a path to Creative Healing. Creative Healing has 360 degrees of opportunity. I am finding Creating for Climate Change very creative quite satisfying".
