Artists have been inspired by the sacred beauty of New Mexico since a time that was before time. The landscape bends the heart in a multitude of directions. Walking rain over a silver mesa feels romantic, the blaze of a blue sky over a canyon wall energizes, and thriving rivers promise summer days to come. It is no wonder that New Mexico has inspired so many cultural works of art throughout history.
Particle: Design like Travel happens in an actual space. It really does! You are either paddleboarding through the rose canyons of the Rio Grande, or you are not. You are transformed by the Design choices (art, textiles, light) of an interior, or you are not. And these natural and created spaces thrill us because they actually exist.
Wave: After a travel adventure or a visit to a cultural destination, you go home with a sense of place, a recalibration of spirit, and an elevation of mind. Small annoyances at work don’t bother you as much, you might try your hand at making your own red chile, and your overall outlook has brightened.
This edition we look at the connection between culture, nature, and discovery as we visit with Angelisa Espinoza Murray H.I. CEO and Cultural Designer Kris Lasjeskie. Their unique friendship reflects a mutual commitment to cultural preservation. Both women believe in the importance of connecting with land, honoring the sacred, and creating from the heart. Read along to find out more about the confluence of these elemental forces.
