Ancient Echoes

PEGI EYERS


It's a total stretch I know (!) but I was stuck by the similarities in composition, form and color between the recent photo of the Carina Nebula in the Milky Way taken with the James Webb Space Telescope, and my 2001 painting entitled "Desert Spirit." I'm not sure what the connection is, but it's amazing how the work of the imagination and the creative process, can sometimes mimic or access cosmic realms, dream worlds, and mystical spaces. ​

    Pegi Eyers' brilliant artwork sings of
    the power of the feminine soul and
    body.  A song of protection and procreative power.
