*****

Katie Chirgotis, founder of Eothen and creatrix of Eothen Circle, is a practicing florist and student of Nature-based in Santa Cruz, California. Raised in the marshes of Virginia, her love for the land in relation to body, observation of the tides in relation to breath, appreciation of the seasons in relation to spirit - continues to inform the woman and artist she is becoming today. As our collective society tilts into a time and experience unlike any other, it is her deep belief that we must look to Earth-based practices and ancestral teachings to call back our humanity, and return to center. It is Katie’s daily effort to make work, and act, from a place of trust, co-creation, and heart-centered intention. Trying, failing, learning, and loving - all along the way.
