"Descent II / Water" detail, cut paper and mixed-media by Pegi Eyers
Artist's Statement
The art-making process enables me to explore existing mythologies and those of my own making. With my painting and mixed-media creations I express both inner and outer connections, and celebrate the energy and beauty of the natural world. I am inspired by traditions that recognize the sacred dimension of life, and stories that draw close to the Great Mystery. Pegi Eyers
