Deeply touched by the Beauty and Terror of being human and the ongoing inspiration of finding my place and voice in this world, I open myself to give gratitude for Nature and her always inspiring Presence, for the possibility of creating openness and movement , to share and hopefully inspire us to keep on dreaming, creating, celebrating, dancing our quest for more sense of balance in Life.

Lies Van Hee

Lies Van hee is an artist, a mom, dancer and partner, currently living in the abundant beauty of the Devon Hills and Dartmoor. From a young age, she is deeply touched and inspired by the Beauty and Terror of being human, the state of connection between Humanity and Nature and the ongoing journey of finding her place and voice in this world. In 2007 she receives her masterdegree in Visual Arts with a video/installation/drawings “ Beware of not getting Lost “ and she starts an in depth study into the proces of creation, which led her towards exploration of different workshops, ceremonies, ways of co-creating with other people. In 2010 she and her partner welcome their son into the family. She replaces her studio for one suitcase, travelling through the landscapes of motherhood, relationships, gardening, Nature… Filling those precious moments of space with drawing/silence/dreaming/writing/listening/photograpy/dancing.

At this time she starts to dance on very regular base. The language of her art is changing through movement and dance becomes a very close friend to the visual aspect of her creations.

Her work has been described as “ highly creative and sensitive, opening, reflective, subtle, visionary, moving, powerfull, beyond words, soultouching, Essence, Silence, Poetic, playfull, light, magical, mystical, clear, deeply connected with Nature and Spirit, and a deep exploration of the essence of the elements and our interconnection with them, combining a profound intuitive understanding of our inter dependency with nature and the sacred aspect of it”.  www.liesvanhee.com

As ‘artist in residence’ she is part of Middle Earth Medicine Ways, a center founded by Caroline Carey, where you will find internationally run courses in movement and ecstatic dance, with connections to our ancestral stories, to nature and to the elements. A place to learn about your innate creativity, your own healing path, discovering rituals and ceremonial work that is both traditional and new. Through this process and specializing in body (movement) and heart (emotion) centered practices including the deep journey into our shadows, there are many opportunities for personal growth and developing your own journey. The essence of this work is to marry our core wounds with our aspirations to discover our authentic and fully integrated self, thus becoming truly empowered, allowing the soul and the ego to live in harmony. www.middleearthmedicine.com
