About Me
Allegra Harrington received her BA from the University of New Mexico in Art and Anthropology. In the 70's she became a textile designer in New York and furthered her design skills at FIT. In 1984-1990 she established The Designer's loft Gallery and her jewelry business. Her Sculpture to Wear collections emerge from Native American spirituality, European architecture and rituals from India. Her multi-media creations combine her photography, aluminum screen, watercolors and natural found elements.
In 2018 through her own Whale's Tail Publications wrote Topography a highly unique visual memoir calling on the wisdom of animals, personal symbiology, and raw honest storytelling . Through her sharp dreams, unmistakable messages from nature and animals she shares her rebirth and hope with a personal map- making system that she developed herself to make sense of life's landscapes. This journey is revealed through vibrant mixed media art and poetry to encourage women to connect with finding freedom through their artistic expression and be a witness to the divine female paradigm now on earth.
Allegra's artistic journey unfolds in every stroke of her brush and every thoughtfully crafted word. Her collection, "Artistry Unveiled," is a testament to her ability to seamlessly blend emotion, color, and imagination into captivating masterpieces. From abstract landscapes that evoke a sense of wonder to intricately detailed visual narratives, each piece is a reflection of Allegra's boundless creativity and passion for storytelling through art.
At the heart of Allegra's literary contributions is her book, "Topography: Mapping your Path to your most Authentic Self - a Visual Memoir." This transformative work transcends traditional storytelling, offering readers a unique exploration of their inner selves through a harmonious blend of words and visuals. In this visual memoir, Allegra Harrington guides readers on a journey of self-discovery, encouraging them to embrace their authenticity and forge their own path.
The mystical realms come alive in Allegra's creation, "Gaia's Wisdom Oracle Deck and Divine Affirmations." Through beautifully illustrated cards and profound affirmations, she opens a portal to the ancient wisdom of Gaia, guiding seekers towards a deeper connection with the universe. This divine deck is more than a tool; it's a spiritual companion for those on a journey of self-reflection and enlightenment.
Beyond her art and literary pursuits, Allegra extends her transformative touch through SkyGirls TM, a series of classes designed to empower girls and women of all ages. These classes serve as a sanctuary for those navigating the anxious feelings of development, fostering self-discovery, and providing valuable tools for personal growth.
