There’s a haunting beauty woven into WVP Traci Ultsch’s upcoming exhibition, The Turning of Our Bones, at the Souland Gallery. It’s a journey into the heart of myth, memory, and the sacred connection between nature and the divine. Through evocative visuals and stirring music, Traci invites us to walk beneath the ancient trees, follow cryptic signs, and surrender to a world where light doesn’t just fall—it entangles.

From the moment you step in, the experience is like being caught in a shadow-play between past and present, decay and resurrection. The birch bark, the silent birds, and the whispering hills tell a story of a King whose body becomes the very earth he once ruled, now folding into memory and myth. The Daughters of Albion offer pity and choices, but time slips away, and the scene fades into silence. Traci’s words echo like a prayer, longing for the Goddess to look down and turn her bones once more.

This exhibition unfolds across three evocative walls:

THE FIRST WALL (left) – IN SEARCH OF THE GODDESS
The forest transforms into a living map of rot and resurrection, where trees become divine scaffolds and light performs its last alchemy. Every branch is alive with invisible watchers in a celestial embrace.

THE SECOND WALL (Back) – THE 3 DOORS OF ALBION
Three doors represent lost power and fading myth: the broken doorways of Arthur’s throne, a king’s collapse into memory, and a kingdom reduced to mulch and nettle roots. These doors refuse entry, echoing unfinished stories and vanished kingdoms.

THE THIRD WALL (right) – FADING LIGHT
Traci’s journey through these landscapes is deeply personal—a confrontation with loss, memory, and the inevitable fading of all things. The photos and words capture a life cataloged and a soul ready to return home, while silently asking for one last turn of the bones.

The underground space ties it all together—a raw, emotional plea to confront death, keep searching, and grasp for light and love, even when all seems lost.

Traci’s exhibition is not just an art show; it’s a meditation on time, myth, and our place within the natural and spiritual worlds. Every visitor is invited to step into this layered story, to feel the weight of history and the fragile beauty of now.
