CHIRP’s Visibility Through Art Initiative
For the past five years, I have helped to organize, curate, and participate in this meaningful show. This project was inspired by the Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan Tribe's desire to engaged local artists to create artwork that authentically represented the Nisenan and their rich but nearly forgotten history here in Nevada County. The goal of the exhibit is to create conscientious art pieces that engage around the history and culture of the Original Peoples of Nevada County. This show requires continuously navigating the sensitive and real topics of cultural appropriation, privilege, and erasure, especially with many of the artists being non-Nisenan. This is not a simple journey, artists were asked to engage in deep listening to the stories and history shared with them by the Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan Tribe. Together each artist collaborated individually with Tribal Members on their art pieces to create respectful and reflective works. Creating artworks that reflect the Nisenan people, culture, and history is another way to preserve and bring visibility to The Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan.

"Mira was the only person I knew who would have the capacity and ability to create this very personal vision I had in my mind and heart that felt authentic, original, and alluring. The collaboration with Mira unfolded with ease, grace and depth which honored and reflected my prayer come to life through her unbelievable craft. My gratitude for Mira is immeasurable, not only for her heartfelt professionalism, but also for the layers of profound insight and healing this painting continues to offer as I integrate the wisdom of love." -Victoria Moran, LMFT
"Mira painted the artwork for my Ketubah (Jewish marriage contract). Working with her was a delight from start to finish; she was very communicative and deeply listened to understand our visions for what we wanted, she also was very timely with her work and I felt completely at ease that the art would be finished in time for the wedding. The finished artwork was absolutely gorgeous. It really captured the sensual, earthy, and love filled essence that we were wanting to evoke for our marriage contract. It is truly a sacred piece of art that we will treasure for the rest of our lives, and it brings me so much joy every time I look at it. Mira's talent for transforming ideas and concepts into visual form brings added layers of emotional depth to the aesthetic beauty of her art. I feel honored to have an original work of art by this very talented artist." -Shoshi London
