Greetings from Spirithaven!! Thank you all for supporting An Equinox Tale! We passed the 80% funded level today, but we still not where we need to be. Stretch goals are now within our reach! Please help us reach our goals. Let’s shine a little light and creativity in this moment in time where there is so much darkness and destruction. We are all in this together!

✨The Newark Museum of Art is proud to partner with Pathways to Trust @pathwaystotrust to showcase a second iteration of Re-Imagining Pain Through Art, curated by Cheryl Lloyd and Zakiyyah Williams @curatedbynorth . Supported by Darryl Dwayne Walker @darryldwayne (Manager of Community Engagement) & Imani Lee Hector @eye.manifest (Program & Media Producer)

This digital community exhibition focuses on the impact of rare disease on the Newark community, with a special emphasis on the impact of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). Newark is home to the largest concentration of the nearly 6000 patients with SCD in New Jersey.

In September 2024, Re-Imagining Pain Through Art debuted at the 1978 Gallery in Maplewood and was part of 2025 Garden State Arts Weekend in West Orange.
Artists display both visual works including paintings, drawings, and sculptures, as well as literary works such as poetry and other narrative works.

Pathways to Trust showcased performances at a program called Symphony of Voices at the opening reception where poets and professional actors brought the words of the patients to life, embodying their challenges and ultimate triumphs over chronic illness.

On View April 2nd - May 31st 2026

Congrats 🎊 To All The Featured Artists

Strength is not always loud. Sometimes, it lives in the steady gaze of a woman who has lived her story and carries it without apology.

Three portraits from “Here I Am”:

Tacy, Sybil, and Fran.

Strength is not always loud. Sometimes, it quietly resides in the way a woman meets the camera.

در برهوت شمال دریایست که به آن دریاچه آسمان گویند. در آن ماهی‌ای زندگی می‌کند که هزاران فرسنگ پهنا دارد و درازایش را کسی نمیداند. آن را بهموت نامند. در تاریخ شگفتی‌ها آمده که در اعتدال بهموت به پرنده‌ای به نام سیمرغ تبدیل میشود که پشتش مانند کوه قاف است و با‌ل‌هایش آسمان را مثل ابرها میپوشانند. سیمرغ با تلاشی شگرف برمیخیزد، دریا را میشکافد، سوار بر طوفان هزاران فرسنگ بالا میرود و سفر شش ماهه‌اش را به سوی تاریکی جنوب، دریاچه بهشت، آغاز میکند.
و ذرات نور خورشید نیز اینگونه‌اند، که چه لاجوردی آسمان از خودش باشد، یا برآمد از دوری بی‌پایان، برای پرنده یا ذره که به پایین می‌نگرند تفاوتی ندارد.

+++ swipe left to see Sybil’s paintings:
Here is what she says about her work (3rd person). Using a rich language of color and symbolism, Sybil Archibald describes a world beyond words. While still in her twenties, Archibald was diagnosed with the rare autoimmune disease scleroderma and given five years to live. She credits the healing nature of making art with keeping her alive and going strong for more than 25 years.

During her Monotype of the Day Project, she created a new monotype each day for 900 days. She never missed a day even when in the hospital for 3 weeks. This daily practice is integral to her inner healing.

Archibald's book, The Inner Life of the Artist: 900 Monotypes in 900 Days, pairs her monotypes and writing with sacred poetry from around the world to give the reader rare insights into the healing nature of art and the life of an artist. #artistsoninstagram #artist #spirituality #southorangenj
