meet the artist

Carissa Violante is a multimedia artist who explores the intersections of pagan ritual and the artistic practice. Inspired by earth, air, fire, water, and spirit, her work evolves through the observation of the wheel of the year, rites, and spellwork. She presents her viewers with both symbolic visuals and sacred objects while asking them to confront deep esoteric truths. 

Her work draws from a deep connection to the Connecticut woodlands and New England coastline. She practices artistic alchemy in Arbor Luna Studio, the home of her creative practice.
