Meet the fae

Aisling Fayne of Way of the Fae is an Irish multidisciplinary artist from the scenic lakeshore lines of Lough Ree in Eire’s midlands. She ventured near and far for many a year until setting roots in County Galway, Ireland, her motivation mainly being her love of endlessly studying the wild flora around her, learning the old ways of wild herbal medicine, foraging plants for food and practical uses, and carrying out regenerative gardening on the land that lays where she roams, no matter how small.

Her love of the natural and imaginal realms is evident in her creations, often preferring to let them speak for themselves to the viewer.

From the Earth, Through the Heart and Into Heart remains the main ethos and inspiration.

Aisling in avid dreamer and vision weaver, an artist, foraging fiend and friend of the woodlands fields, their flora and wild creatures, a herbal enthusiast, seed saver, avant-garde gardener, kitchen witch, seeker of understanding, beauty and truth in all things, a gatherer of the ways of Old - reexperience them in her own way and share what wants to be shown and told.

She draws the lands and creatures from realms still unseen, as we collectively draw nearer to the veil lifting on this planets dream.

The coming together of the People. The Return of the Free and the falling away of all that is false. Is what I most desire to see unfold. And what we See, must come to be.

The goal is not to do it all but to gather and share what she can far and wide, and the aim of self sufficiency is not to live in solitidude, thought that she loves…but to be able to bring forth something…for the surrounding communities both far and wide.

“Onwards,

towards times of old,

to relearn tales

we’ve long forgotten have ever been told,

to learn to live with what’s at hand,

to live and thrive from surrounding land.“

Welcome!
