about shalom creative co.
the idea to create Shalom Creative Co. emerged during a restless night, situated within an uneasy timeframe. as a recent graduate whose anticipated plans for the future went askew, I was lead back to my home state again.
​
like everyone in their early twenties, I was flooded with the multitude of existential questions. I began looking for meaning around every corner, in the very place I thought I would never return to.
​
beauty has always fostered connectedness for me. by nature it is invitational, ushering separated things into hospitable relationship. it makes meaning out of the haphazard, and companions out of strangers. I recognized how much I needed that remarkable phenomenon in my current day.
likewise, shalom has always been an important concept to me. it's a traditional Hebrew greeting, and serves as a warm introduction. yet explored theologically, shalom is also a vision. it's the sacred space where heaven and earth are consumed by one another. it's an image of holistic flourishing life, both individual and shared.
I believe that beauty is a primary way we can promote our dream of shalom, that loveliness and kinship for which we were all intended. join me in this endeavor, through Shalom Creative Co., as together we imagine a more alluring world with the artistic mediums I cherish.
