You know when you first meet someone and something inside tells you “wow, I must learn more about this person", well that’s Desiree Mwalimu-Banks.

Angie met Desiree in a peer review group while a student at Goddard College. Every time Desiree shared with the group, she offered true gems of insight. Desiree is an artist, a priestess, and a wisdom teacher who lives in NYC and has Indian and African ancestry.

Inside this interview with Desiree, she shares inspiration in her art practice, the sacred transformative powers of water, the energetic quality of bees, and her upcoming installation project.
