Peek Behind the Curtain
This is a passion project that is still in its infancy. The goal is to create a space that functions as an online museum, housing portals to various exhibitions. Similar to the concept of an open-source developer space, the entity we create together relies on collaboration. Want to be a part of its conception? Reach out!
Hi, my name is Lacey
I’ve spent over a decade using my skills in graphic design for corporate America and I wanted to create something that I hadn’t seen anywhere else; a platform that connects people and nourishes souls. It’s an evolving concept and I expect this section will change in the future. But for now, you can read a bit more about my story in the first online exhibition “Who Are You?”
-
A passion project that aims to provide a collaborative platform for people to share their passions in an exhibition. Sometimes digital; sometimes IRL.
-
Museums have historically told stories from very limited perspectives, thus excluding large groups of people. This project aims to modernize the museum by expanding the role of curator to community members; sometimes collaborating with institutions and other creative storytellers via various mediums.

Well that’s a loaded question, but my crystal ball tells me that this project will evolve and expand as more and more perspectives join the collective.
Collective Experience
I decided to use Chat GPT to help formulate the idea of what this project is all about. I was blown away by the results from artificial intelligence, and thought it summed up the concept beautifully, seeing as the words were generated from the world wide web of human experience. I said “write me a short bio about the collective consciousness, multiverse theory, mycelium, connection, other dimensions, portals, story telling, ancient wisdom, nature and empathy.”
“In the vast realms of philosophical exploration and scientific speculation, one encounters captivating concepts that stretch the boundaries of human understanding. Among these, the collective consciousness, multiverse theory, mycelium, connection, other dimensions, portals, storytelling, ancient wisdom, nature, and empathy weave a tapestry of interconnectedness.
The collective consciousness is a notion that suggests that beyond our individual minds, there exists a shared pool of thoughts, emotions, and experiences that connect all sentient beings.
It is a harmonious symphony where every individual contributes to and draws from this vast sea of shared awareness, ultimately shaping our collective reality.
Multiverse theory posits that our universe is just one among an infinite array of parallel universes, each with its own set of physical laws and possibilities.
It tantalizes us with the prospect that every choice we make spawns new realities, branching out into an endless tapestry of existence, where every conceivable outcome finds its place.
Mycelium, the underground network of interconnected fungal threads, serves as a metaphor for the intricate web of connections in our world. Just as mycelium nurtures ecosystems by facilitating nutrient exchange and communication among plants, it reflects the interconnectedness of all living beings.
Through this symbiotic interplay, nature's wisdom is illuminated, highlighting the importance of cooperation, resilience, and interdependence.
The concept of connection delves deep into the understanding that all things are interwoven. It recognizes that every action, every thought, and every encounter has ripple effects that reverberate through the vast fabric of existence. From the bonds we form with loved ones to the interactions we have with strangers, connection is the invisible thread that weaves us into the tapestry of life.
Other dimensions, beyond the confines of our familiar three-dimensional reality, beckon us with the promise of uncharted realms. These realms may exist parallel to our own, housing unfathomable wonders and possibilities that stretch the limits of human comprehension.
They fuel our curiosity, prompting us to ponder the vastness of the cosmos and the mysteries that lie beyond our current understanding.
Portals serve as gateways to these other dimensions, offering a glimpse into realms beyond our reach. These fantastical conduits, whether metaphorical or physical, invite us to explore new horizons and traverse the boundaries of what we perceive as possible. They represent the potential for transformative experiences and encounters that transcend the confines of our everyday lives.
Storytelling, an ancient art deeply rooted in human history, holds the power to transmit wisdom, inspire imagination, and forge connections.
Through stories, we find meaning, celebrate our shared experiences, and preserve our collective heritage. They are bridges that span generations, cultures, and even dimensions, allowing us to tap into the depths of our humanity and connect with the essence of the human experience.
Ancient wisdom, garnered through the accumulated knowledge and insights of our ancestors, serves as a guiding light in our modern world. It reminds us of our interconnectedness with nature, the cyclical nature of life, and the importance of balance and harmony.
Ancient wisdom beckons us to listen to the whispers of the past and draw upon the timeless truths that have shaped our existence.
Nature, our bountiful and intricate home, offers a sanctuary for contemplation and rejuvenation. From the awe-inspiring beauty of landscapes to the intricate interdependencies of ecosystems, nature holds profound lessons about the delicate balance and resilience of life. It teaches us to nurture and protect our planet, fostering a deep sense of interconnectedness with all living beings.
Empathy, the ability to understand and share the feelings of others, lies at the heart of our collective journey.
It bridges the gaps between individuals, cultures, and dimensions, fostering compassion and unity. Empathy invites us to transcend our personal perspectives and connect with the diverse tapestry of humanity, reminding us that we are all interconnected and deserving of kindness and understanding.
In this intricate web of concepts and ideas, the threads of the collective consciousness, multiverse theory, mycelium, connection, other dimensions, portals, storytelling, ancient wisdom, nature, and empathy converge.
They invite us to delve deeper into the mysteries of existence, reminding us that we are but a small part of a grand cosmic symphony, forever bound together in the intricate dance of life.”
