Zen Space

Provided by Ty's Eye in collaboration with Sandra Wairimu, Reiki MT

Ty Murray is a multi-faceted artist and activist. As a modern day Renaissance woman rooted in the rural south, her art reflects who she is, where she’s from and what she aspires to see in the world. All are encouraged to visit The Bottom to experience Ty's Eye intentional curation and sensory design work in action!

Sandra is a Kenyan born, social sculptor, Qi-gong practitioner, Reiki Master-Teacher, and Master of Public Health. As a person who wholeheartedly embraces the role of a healer and an artist, Sandra’s offering is an embodiment of their commitment to fostering sanctuaries that beckon us to embark on a journey of self-compassion.

These spaces encourage those who enter to explore the depths of their being and rekindle the relationship with their true selves. You are invited to connect not only with yourself but with the collective energy that pulses through this sacred space. May you emerge feeling invigorated, balanced, and connected – with yourself, with others and with this land.
