Is your spirit screaming for recognition and acknowledgement of its desire to help you move towards your full potential?

Have you accepted that each of us has a part to play in the creation of healthier communities for ourselves and our children, but you don't know exactly where to start?

These are some of the key questions that led to my personal search for Rafala's Place. Like so many others these days, I realized that before I could see the path ahead I had to stop and reconnect with my own spirit first. My central question was "Where is that space in the Universe that my life was intended to occupy?" That space where my spirit shines because it is moving inside of its mission. As soon as I articulated this question, doors opened and I found my life surrounded by kindred spirits willing and eager to support me in the acknowledgement of that special place that my spirit had chosen.

As a sculptor, public artist, educator, community activist, facilitator and arts administrator, I have been dedicated to the creation and construction of works of art in public and/or private spaces that
    offer opportunities for community enjoyment
    invite active participation in the creation process
    create spaces in which the sacred can occur

Over the years I have come to appreciate how precious it is to come upon a space in our hectic world that offers a respite for the spirit. Many of us work, move and live in spaces that often separate and isolate us from ourselves and each other. Ultimately, we are going to have to deal with the need to invest in the care and feeding of the spirit if we are to have a truly healthy society.
