Reclaiming Place: Art, Identity, and the Land explores how artists use natural materials and themes of place to examine identity, belonging, and reclamation. Through art, we navigate our relationship to the land and the stories it holds, uncovering deeper connections to our environments and histories. This exploration becomes an act of decolonization—liberating both mental and physical boundaries while reimagining ways of being that are rooted in connection, reciprocity, and a renewed sense of place.

Of Earth and Essence is an exploration of the deep bond between people and land—a poetic reclamation of space, story, and spirit. In collaboration with the Flagstaff Mountain Film Festival, this exhibition gathers works crafted and inspired from earth’s gifts—each piece a whisper of memory, resilience, and transformation.

Ruta’s crocheted mandala is a meditation on transformation, born from grief and the need for solace. Each stitch became a way to process loss, turning pain into beauty and reminding us that even in life’s unraveling, something whole can emerge.
