Earth Art
Earth Art is a practice rooted in creating temporary offerings from the natural world—arrangements formed from leaves, stones, petals, branches, and found elements gathered with care. Through these quiet acts of making, Joy creates Morning Altars: ephemeral mandalas shaped by place, season, and attention. Each altar is formed at the beginning of the day as a gesture of gratitude, marking the moment not to preserve it, but to witness it fully.
Morning Altars are intentionally impermanent. Left to return to the land, they honor the beauty of change and the truth that nothing is meant to be held. The practice invites stillness, listening, and presence—allowing the natural world to guide form and rhythm. In this way, Earth Art becomes a meditation: a way of slowing down, observing closely, and responding gently to what is already there.
Rather than creating for permanence or display, Joy’s Morning Altars celebrate the fleeting nature of life itself. They serve as quiet reminders that joy can be found in attention, beauty in simplicity, and meaning in moments that pass as soon as they arrive. Through Earth Art, the act of making becomes an offering—one rooted in reverence for nature and the quiet magic of being fully awake to each new day.
