CHASM: Elevation In Partnership with Center for The Higher Self

10+ Artist list to be posted Nov. 12th, 2021~

Uplifting energies will be conjured by a diverse group of artists in Wynwood during Art Basel Miami this year. CHASM.nyc partners with the all new Center for The Higher Self, a community healing playground built to expand consciousness through self exploration and sound. CHASM: Elevation features a weeklong, immersive visual art installation inside of the new space, and a day-to-night music and art event on Saturday, December 4th. Faeries, sound healers, performance artists, and VJs converge for a femme-centric mini fest focused on grounding, healing and playful exploration. A garden of pleasures and delights, CHASM: Elevation serves as the alternative to Basel week madness, presenting an alcohol-free elixir bar.

Center for The Higher Self is a space that promotes physical, mental and celestial healing. A space to connect a community of people who are also working towards growth and expansion. A space to hea and vibrate together. Launched in 2021 by Miami native Lauren Martinez, the Center represents the cumulation of a deep inner holistic journey, which the internationally recognized dj and producer began on early in life. From an event space to classes in yoga, reiki, meditation, sound healing, and breathwork, Center for The Higher Self is excited to debut its offerings to the Wynwood community. 

CHASM.nyc is the curatorial project of sculptor, performer and musician Julia Sinelnikova aka The Oracle. CHASM audiovisual exhibitions and performance curations have been profiled in the New York Times, Paper Magazine, and Time Out NY. The project is focused on bringing experimental light art, music, performance and more by lgbtqpoc artists and women to the forefront.

Center for the Higher Self - Founder’s Journey

Spirituality has been a continuous part of Lauren Martinez’s life since she was a young girl. Navigating other realms of consciousness has always been a constant for her. But it wasn’t until 2017 that her true calling began to take form. Prior to that, Lauren was an internationally traveling dj & producer based in New York for over a decade. Being recognized by MixMag as a force to look out for, she built momentum for herself in the industry, releasing acclaimed music and simultaneously launching her own record label. It was at this time, at the height of her career, that the universe had other plans.

Lauren’s health took a dark turn, living with chronic pain and depression, she knew things couldn’t continue this way. After vowing to become sober, she began to dive headfirst in every healing modality she found. From acupuncture, to reiki, yoga, plant medicine and shadow work, she pulled back each layer that was holding her down and her vision become more clear. Her calling was to create an all encompassing healing community, where people could come learn about and receive some of the services that helped her. The Center For The Higher Self was born: A place to receive services and also surround yourself with a supportive community of seekers and healers.

SO HEARTBROKEN TO POST THIS BUT I AM BEING CHALLENGED AS A VISUAL ARTIST BY AN ENTIRE AMERICAN CITY, PORTSMOUTH, NEW HAMPSHIRE. ALL IMAGES ABOVE ARE MY OWN WORK PRIOR TO 2020, OTHER THAN THOSE NAMED.

EVIDENCE: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mkog-Z1T7zWHAS8XlH_VmzABV-L0Fzkl?usp=share_link

In the past calendar year I have been finalist for my drawings of public sculptures in NINE U.S. CITIES, and I have won two of these commissions with another pending. I have created a number of public sculptures for cities including my maritime “Waves” series, since 2017. In September 2022 I submitted my drawing, img 2, to the insta @ portsmouthnh400 committee (they blocked me). In November the fellow six other finalist artists for this open-ended national competition for $200k was revealed to each other during our interview sign up process. My screenshot here shows that. In early March 2023 Sijia was selected and announced, and I brought the past works to the committee’s attention. Two weeks later I noticed a design nearly identical to mine was being advertised in @ seacoastonline (reporters there ignoring me), on the portsmouthnh400 pages, on insta @ sijiachenart website and on the city’s press releases for a $100k commission. I was absolutely shocked. After I inquired again, the committee also did not respond. They sent me a one line response from the city’s lawyer, Suzanne Woodward. Please DM me for the evidence folder if you can help. I have written many times over the past month to the mayor, the city council, the original committee and even the artist to PLEASE STOP THE FABRICATION OF MY ORIGINAL DESIGN. I have not once asked for money or to be credited. I simply want this circus to end. I spoke at city hall on Tuesday in Portsmouth and was ambushed by a surprise response of denials - the committee most likely illegally shared my letter with the artist in California over the weekend. She is denying all wrongdoing.

I am simply asking for the design to be removed from the internet and articles. It is too similar to my finalist design to be seen as original in this insane context, especially considering previous unoriginal works in the artist’s portfolio. Herself and the city act like I am “accusing” her of something much graver and asking for something else, never once speaking to me about the matter since the start of March 2023.

She is older and more established, I am a queer, disabled first generation immigrant. This is just so dishonorable, and unethical. Write to committee: Sculpture@portsmouthnh400.org But they don’t care. I need help.
