•CULTURE MAKER• EXPERIENCE DESIGNER•

•RITUALIST• COMMUNITY BUILDER•CREATIVE DIRECTOR•

Isis Indriya's multi-faceted work brings holistic and initiatory practices into dynamic and widely accessible forums. She is a facilitator of cultural and social evolution through her visioning, curation and production of events and her role as educator. 

Isis has studied extensively in a diverse range of subjects including whole systems design, shamanism, practical alchemy, ritual, transpersonal healing and performance art. She has been Initiated through  Body Mind Academy and the Rocky Mountain Mystery School, and completed apprenticeships with prominent wisdom keepers, applying  this knowledge to her work in events, ceremony, ritual theater and performance with the intention of serving as catalyst for personal transformation and community evolution. 

Isis has been working in event production for 18 years and has a professional focus on using the power of gatherings to inspire  transformation on the community wide level. She combines her years of intensive studies of diverse wisdom systems and experience with ritual and ceremony  to cross-pollinate spiritual ideas  and create  contemporary sacred spaces within a festival and events context. 

Since 2010 Isis has been working on both Lightning in a Bottle and Symbiosis festivals curating and co-producing The Village. This cultural experiment creates a temporal space to explore how to create and sustain a village through whole system organic design, interaction and education. The Village is a manifestation of Isis’ ability to rapidly translate vision into reality through her uniquely practical and action oriented creative process.  From concept to completion, Isis reliably creates impactful spaces for all who experience them. 

She is co-founder, co-owner and music promoter for the highly popular Haven Underground events venue, which stands at the epicenter of the creative and dynamic community of Nevada City where she lives.  In addition, she maintains an active role in the Farm to Table dining experiences and Wild Women Wisdom events, and other fairs, special events and festivals that help her home community thrive.

Her passion for travel and learning about diverse cultures combined with her deep respect of the land and the indigenous people who inhabit it has created a role for Isis to serve as a bridge builder, using her work hosting retreats, her deep involvement in ceremony, and her film and event production to connect the next generation to some of the most honored elder lineage holders and wisdom keepers of the planet, including the Hopi, Qero, Mexica, Cheyenne and Dine.
