"I am Serian Leti Strauss, and I move at the edges where the everyday meets the sacred. 

As a Black, mixed-race, queer artist from Tanzania, I carry many worlds within me - worlds that reveal wisdom, forge unexpected connections, and open portals to knowing that reaches beyond logic and into the realm of symbol, story, and archetype  - where deeper truths take shape.

I am a steward of land and lineage, listening for the ways humans and non-humans can be in right relationship and reciprocity with the earth. As a maker, I craft vessels and artifacts that invite the sacred into daily life—objects that carry memory, meaning, and the possibility of transformation. As a coach and facilitator, I transform fear into possibility through the power of imagination. 

My approach honors the profoundly healing connection between individual and collective, ancestor and self. I believe everything is unlocked through A.I.—Ancestral Intelligence—the deep well of wisdom that lives within us, around us, and before us."
