Expressions

We are devoted to art as a means of expanding awareness and shaping culture.

Hildegaard holds that artists play a formative role in how we perceive the natural world, and that aesthetic experience offers one of the most direct ways of renewing our relationship with it.
Our work with the botanical world takes experimental form, situated at the intersection of art, nature, contemplation, and the body. Each creation is conceived by Lia Chavez as an exploration of light and the intelligence of nature, with a devotion to magnifying Lux Vivens—the Living Light. Works may take performative, conceptual, experiential, organic, scientific, technological, or contemplative expression.

We collaborate with partners who share a commitment to a regenerative vision of nature and culture. Works are produced in limited and bespoke form, including made-to-order pieces, rare Haute Botanical editions, and commissioned creations available upon request.
