Gaia Rose has such a natural authentic beauty for inspiring, liberating, & teaching other women how to courageously live from the intuitive heart, stay rooted in their truth, remember their wild, & deepen their human-Nature relationship with the healing seasons, cycles, & medicine of our great Mother Earth. One of the ways she does this is through her books, her teachings of natures medicine, & her feminine sculpture collection ‘Broken but Beautiful’.
Working with nature, alongside sculpting & creating with her hands is something Gaia has been doing since she was a small child, but due to many challenging life paths & traumas that arose her art took a back seat, with her earlier years plagued with sexual & physical child abuse, homelessness, the loss of her big brother, a suicide attempt, & many emotional breakdowns along the way, but it was in these break-downs, that she also found her greatest break through, awakening to herself, to spirit, & to the innate primal human-Nature connection more deeply than before.
Gaia then began focusing on more verbally expressing ~ writing books, singing, healing women, & giving liberating talks & teachings from stage ~ passions she still has, until her later years when she felt inspired to also delve into her creative side once again.
Through building a deeper relationship with the Earth & using its beauty to inspire her sculpting ~ especially the natural beauty of Snowdonia & warming colours of the Cyprus mountains ~ Gaia not only found it deepened her peace, but also became another ‘medicine’, a channel, helping her share her ‘stories of woman’, her spirit of freedom, & her rebellious inner voice, holding space for her to heal, to release, & to express her soul, her pain, & her honour for her ancestral Malay roots & the ever evolving wild beauty of Mother Earth that forever blossoms through the feminine essence…even through the brokenness.
“Returning to the ‘womb’ & medicine of Nature, alongside creating sculptures with the ancient clay from her body has been one of the most beautiful journeys I could have taken, as it has only been by re-connecting to this deep wisdom, truth, & healing medicine of the natural world ~ the great spirit of Mother Earth ~ whilst weaving the message of my sculptures with her body through my hands, that my traumas have began to heal, my soul has slowed down, & my greatest lessons have been learnt, helping me return more deeply to my WILD, release the societal chains, & reclaim my peace…
She has been my teacher, my mother, my freedom”
~ Gaia Rose
Gaia is married with two adult children & two dogs, preferring a more quiet private life. When she isn’t sculpting she spends her time writing, singing, growing natural medicines, & journeying between the green meadows of England & the Mothers Mountains of Cyprus & Snowdonia.
You can find info on Gaia’s ‘Broken but Beautiful’ collection via her Sculpture Gallery, alongside all upcoming art fairs & galleries.
Remembering…
We were wild once.
We were uncaged.
We told stories, wrote poetry, created art, and grew natural medicines.
We were born with our hands rooted in the soil, our honour & praise given to the great Mother, & our health & healing birthed in kinship with the Land.
We took our teachings from the elements of wind, fire, water, & earth, listening to their ever flowing wisdom, working together with her plants, her trees, her berries, her fruit, & her fungi, all which grows freely upon her ever evolving body.
But we have forgotten…
