HEALING THE BRIDGE OF INTIMACY ~ WITH THE BEINGS WHO GIVE US LIFE
Earth bridge is a collective of crafts, poetry, classes, and community offerings focused on supporting our connection with the living, animate world. We seek to serve the healing between individuals and our web of relationships ~with one another and the beings who help us live~ by reclaiming our ancestral agreements and responsibilities, weaving intention with craft and processing skills, and representing the connection between the earth and people in an integral, encouraging, generous, and welcoming way. We believe in the power of these skills, spaces and intentional ways of being in relationship to heal many of the cultural, spiritual and emotional wounds we recognize and experience in the midst of an animacy denying and consumer based culture. Our prayer is that the way we live may reflect the generosity and wisdom of the land and beings who give us life, and help us recognize and remember the depths of our belonging in the world.
Earth bridge works mainly on the Olympic peninsula, on the ancestral and current lands of the coast Salish people who have lived here since time immemorial.

ive been a buckskin devotee for the last few years tanning almost entirely hides from roadkill. all buckskin crafts from my collection i am happy to recreate for commissions, as well as supply full smoke tanned hides.

weavings - cedar and wool
cross culturally, weaving is recognized as holding the body of teachings reflecting holding ones self, community, and world together in harmony. i have been practicing this craft since 2020, and have recently been combining my two most beloved crafts of textile weaving and buckskin together in my projects.

I created Earth Bridge as a way to bring my dreams into the world, of sharing my crafts, art, poetry and classes more intentionally. each of these mediums are my way of conveying my love and care for our world, and each of our direct relationships with her. I am currently living in Chimacum WA, working with my community here to recall what it means to be a human being thru craft, connection, ceremony and rights of passage work, and have recently come to the place in myself to begin sharing what Ive gathered along the way more intentionally. I have had many wonderful teachers and mentors who have helped me bring to life and practice my values and prayers, some of whom include Angelo Gatto of Brightwheel, Harmony Crowin of Gathering ways, Epona Rose, Lary montoya, Gary buckman, Paul Chiyokten Wagner, Mary Sasayatha Jack, Timothy Mathieson, and my beloved, Sasha Zavyalova. I come from a family of mostly German immigrants here to turtle island, where my life is guided by, and sound in my love for my ancestors and our gods, the traditions, spirits, and ceremonies of this beautiful place I call home, and the tree of life where we all meet.
