About me and my work
My name is Beth, and I’m an artist who makes and works with images, inside and outside of the body, in dreams, bodywork and artworks, with myself and other people. I also host a podcast called Dreaming Earth, about all the things that I love, and how they cross over. I’ve just made a special new space, here on my website, called Untamed Icons - for things that I’ve made in a very particular way - I invite you to take a look. The way that images live within us, awake or while we sleep, made by us or by others, continues to astonish me !
I’m a Christian Sufi, and every aspect of my life is guided by my relationship with God. Alongside this, and through this lens, my art and dream practice is a beautiful source of company, support and illumination for me. I spend lots of time out walking with my dogs, and love being among, and learning from the rest of the life forms we share this planet with. The plants, trees, fungi and animals, as well as the geology and weather systems, give me a deep sense of belonging, meaning and also responsibility. These things, as well as my more formal qualifications, informs my work with other people.
Being with the language of the body is a beautiful practice - and is supportive for all kinds of situations that you’re finding difficult, confusing or intriguing. We can also work with dreams that feel vivid, interesting or even frightening.
Working in this way, you are encouraged to be just as you find yourself - everything belongs, everything is welcome. This work is creative, therapeutic, embodied and often spiritual in its nature, and it will broaden, support and inspire you.
With some devotion to this practice, you will learn to really love and value what your whole organism knows - even the parts that feel very difficult - and you’ll begin to understand your body, and your whole self, as a truly communicative and sacred terrain.
Sessions are an hour in length, and we meet on Zoom.
If you have any questions about working with me, and wether it might suit you, please just get in touch.
