Artist Journey
As a Black, queer, and immigrant artist, I’ve always sought to explore my identity, honor my heritage, and connect with the stories of my ancestors, stories that live in me, even when history has left no records behind. Approximately eight years ago, I took a genealogy test that revealed fragments of my ancestry: roots spanning Sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean, Europe, and Indigenous America. That discovery sparked something profound within me, a desire to weave these fragmented threads into a tapestry of belonging and self-discovery. This journey has also been shaped by my experiences navigating mental illness, including ADHD, anxiety, OCD, depression, PTSD and my autism diagnosis (misdiagnosed as bipolar disorder), which have profoundly influenced the way I view resilience, connection, and creativity.
"Threads of Ancestral Light" is the result of that journey. This collection is my way of honoring the stories I’ll never fully know while celebrating the richness of the cultures and histories that shape who I am. Through vibrant textures, golden light, and symbolic patterns, I explore migration, resilience, and the spiritual ties that connect us to one another across time and space.
For me, this work is more than art, it’s an offering. It’s a reflection of my journey to reclaim what was lost, to find beauty in what remains, and to create something new that can inspire others to embrace their own stories.
Threads of Ancestral Light
THIS IS ME: Threads of Ancestral Light is a limited edition collection by visionary artist and poet Eris Lorienne. This stunning series of nine giclée prints, elegantly presented in golden 12x16 matted frames, reflects a journey of self-discovery, migration, and cosmic connection.
Each print is one of only six available in this first release, accompanied by a hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity and a unique poem that resonates with the artwork’s narrative. Not only has the design been inspired by Nikola Tesla’s 3-6-9 theory, but the collection’s symbolic pricing of $1332 embodies the universal harmony and ancestral energy. It has always been a challenge pricing my work. On my shop to create accessibility to all, my creations are listed are production costs and tips are appreciated. 50% of all proceeds benefit the Art and Soup fundraiser so to be intentional to make the most for the event, I initially thought I'd price it at $693 but after meditating I received that I should mirror/reflect 369. So, 369+963=1332; (1+3+3+2=9). AND when I looked at how much the 50/50 split would be...it's $666; 6+6+6=18 and 18/2=9!!!! I know the right people will connect with my art and see the value and I can make the most impact for the fundraiser. I mean a banana sold $6.2 million. Click here for CNN coverage.
Join me for the exclusive debut of this collection at the Art and Soup Fundraiser March 9th. March 9th, 3/9; 3+9=12 and 1+2=3. The event will be from 2pm - 5pm (3 hours). I have a wonderful design in mind for my display area. It's going to be a magical time!
