Artist Bio

Kim Wildthorne is a Pacific Coast-based WOC artist whose multidisciplinary practice weaves together talismanic jewelry, ecological research, and ancestral knowledge. Guided by the natal Moon as emotional architecture, she transforms celestial insight into finely crafted instruments that exist at the intersection of adornment, ritual, and sculpture. Trained in both traditional lineages and contemporary material methods, she produces moon-forged talismans, ritual pigments, and astrolunar remedies that blur the boundaries between the tangible and the mystical.

Her work is defined by meticulous craftsmanship and conceptual precision. Drawing on oral traditions and matriarchal knowledge systems, she foregrounds ecological provenance and ancestral continuity, creating pieces intentionally calibrated to support individuals across the gender spectrum, including those navigating complex lunar placements or seeking healing for the mother wound.

Through her Ancestral Moon Atelier, she produces limited-edition works and bespoke commissions that hold both aesthetic and functional significance. Each piece functions as a conduit for emotional regulation, intuitive attunement, and alignment with natural rhythms.

Her practice engages audiences invested in matriarchal materia and ecological art, situating her within a growing field of artists redefining adornment as both artifact and instrument.
