劉連添* (she/her) is an artist from So Many Aways who has found temporary sanctuary on the northern shore of the Beautiful (Shimmering Waters) Lake Ontario. When Lynn of the hurry, hustle and hierarchy died in 2022, the Homemaker was granted return passage to the Realm of Flow, the all-ways Present from which we arose and to which we return when we exhale our last.

I capture experiences into words, welcome fellow souls into my worlds, collect and plant seeds both literal and figurative, harvest as balms intended to soothe whatever ails. I attend to discards. I collect and repurpose the imperfectly perfect rejects to explore the edges of our resource-rich modern slumber. By making my bower flower, I form a single unbroken link to my resourceful remembered (named) and eternal (nameless) human and non-human ancestors.
