I'm Ashleigh, an artist interested in bringing healing light into my practice. My art is autobiographical, but because of my themes, hopefully universal. I offer my stories as a template for others' inward journey of self-discovery. My goal is to make art out of my mystical visions in support of an embodied feminine future, through the wise transmutation of trauma. I make videos, artisanal goods, and words.
