Loren Wilder is an artist, visionary theatermaker, and intuitive intelligence trainer devoted to awakening through creativity.

Her work lives at the intersection of imagination and consciousness, offering immersive experiences that stir the soul, elevate awareness, and invite transformation. Whether designing for large-scale theatrical works, corporate environments, or sacred performance spaces, Loren creates with one aim: to reconnect humanity to its inner power.

She now teaches at Colorado Mesa University and lives in Palisade, CO where the mountains mirror the vastness of her inner world — and where she continues her greatest production yet: helping the world remember who it truly is.

“Art’s task is to save the soul of mankind and that anything less is dithering while Rome burns. Because if the artists, who are self-selected for being able to journey into the other, if the artists cannot find the way, the way cannot be found” -Terrance McKenna
