howdy!

My name is Rachel Bastarache Bogan.

Welcome.

{ artist }

In a world where “influence” is currency, our ability to see ourselves as loved, beautiful, divine individuals is lost. My art consistently revolves around the theme of our inner beauty, the innate and true sense of who we are as humans, whether we believe it to be true or not.

I often use flowers, repeated words, squiggly lines and a “stained glass” motif to hint at these underlying and often buried truths within ourselves.

{ filmmaker }

Though I am a professional editor and video producer, my personal work often focuses on subjects I find fascinating and curious. I love to ask questions, go on research rabbit trails, and then present my findings to the world.

{ everything else }

I often say that I am a human being, not a human “doing.” Our modern Western world often defines us soley by what we do in a day as our career or by the topics we studied. Instead, this is my documentary of all the other things in my life: a roller skating, adventuring, reading, writing and just generally being curious and pondering the enormity of the Universe.
