for creatives seeking direction + structure on their ongoing projects, this intensive mentorship is a 4-month program that combines weekly seminars/workshops with private monthly consulting sessions.

be in devotion to your next creative idea.

our program is designed to transform your relationship to your practice by adaptively re-shaping how you make, think, and be. from idea to prototype to materialization, this process-oriented mentorship will provide you with theoretical frameworks + design strategies to refine your next creative expression.

we offer structure, scholarly tools, and communal space in a time of overstimulation and distraction. this is an invitation to find your vision, voice, and rhythm. 

who this is for:

artists, writers, designers, culture workers, facilitators, and alternative practitioners who are ready to undo their assumptions, build an ethic, and re-design their process, while creating their next body of work. this is for those who appreciate spending time in detailed research and deepening their commitment to the lineages of their practice.

feminist epistemologies 

ecological ontologies 

research tools + resources

ethical principles

adaptive processes

communal experimentation
