This dress holds a story of childhood sexual assault, and the assaults thereafter, as well as the unfinished work of healing.
The Mirror
The dress hangs against a mirror and is a recreation and reinterpretation of the white dress with blue flowers that the I wore at age 10, when the first instance of sexual abuse occurred. If you have carried something like this, you are reflected in the mirror too, and you are not alone.
The Heart
Over the chest, shards of broken glass which I smashed using a hammer and glass bottle, form a heart, held together with glue and laced with palladium (Pd) is a rare, silvery-white transition metal, with the chemical symbol Pd and atomic number 46. It is a strong and resilient metal, yet a delicate element. The glass pieces are sharp, and a heart reassembled. At its center rests a small vial of palladium that pours into the heart to transmute and give strength.
The Stones
I held these stones while I meditated and prayed through my healing. They carry hours of stillness, breath, and asking for help. They are placed here so that stillness can be shared.
The Matches
The matches represent anger. Healing asked me to feel my rage fully and then to use it to confront abuse and speak. Anger can be a spark that lights a path forward to safety and healing.
The Holy Water
The small bottle holds holy water from Loretto Chapel in Santa Fe, New Mexico, water many people regard as healing. I used it in prayer, and it now sits at the hem of the dress as a prayer for everyone who stands before this piece.
What Art Gives
Making this piece let me take experiences that were done to me and shape it with my own hands. For the artist, art becomes a place to put what has no other home. For the viewer, it can be permission: to name what happened, to feel what they feel, and to believe healing is possible.
About the Artist
I am Megan Mueller, the founder of Whistle. Whistle is developing the infrastructure to keep access, support, and organizing ecosystems financially sustainable over the long term, and it is building a marketplace for artists, makers, and musicians alongside a mutual aid fund for them and communities. This piece reflects what Whistle believes: that art creates healing and that communities grow stronger when people support each other.
The Tour and Its Keeper
This piece will travel to cities across the United States so survivors and their communities can stand in front of it, see themselves in the mirror, and feel less alone. When the tour ends, it will go home with its buyer, who becomes its keeper and carries forward every person who stood before it.

Laura Mylott Manning, Artist
GEO FIELDS is a premier collection of colorful, mixed media paintings, available exclusively through Time to Whistle. Every painting is a vibrant fusion of fabric, paint, and high-vibrational Source Code Zero Point Reiki energy. The lively geometric structures and layered textures are designed to evoke an immediate, resonant response in the viewer. Rather than offering a passive visual experience, the paintings act as energetic anchors, inviting audiences to slow down, cultivate intuitive trust, and connect with their own inner landscapes. I chose Whistle as the exclusive home for this powerful series to ensure these paintings make a contribution to the mutual aid funds.
What is Source Code Zero Point Reiki?
The Source Code (The Blueprint) represents the deepest layer of the subconscious and the energetic field. Just as a programmer alters the source code of an application to fix a glitch, a ‘source code’ approach aims to rewrite early-life coping structures, generational traumas, or cellular memory imprints at their absolute root, rather than just addressing surface-level behavioral symptoms.
The Zero Point (The Quantum Sandbox): This is the space of complete neutrality, stillness, and absolute unmanifest potential. It provides the friction-free, zero-resistance ‘vacuum’ environment required to safely dissolve the old code and write the new alignment without the ego or analytical mind getting in the way.
Reiki (The Building Current) acts as the vital, intelligent life force energy that actively flows into the newly cleared space. It acts as the vehicle that takes the newly aligned ‘source code’ templates and builds them back up into tangible, high-frequency physical reality.
The Final Artwork Operates as a Living Resonator
Featured within Whistle's curated Experience Lineup, Stillpoint Beyond -- a profound piece from the GEO FIELDS series -- is now offered with a dedicated Subscription for Collectors plan. Transcending traditional visual art, each painting is a site-specific energetic system built to map, clear, and hold a permanent baseline of neutrality and grounding across your entire space. Twice a month, I send a focused distance energy boost to your original painting. These bi-monthly structural updates are designed to maintain a vibrant, continuous field of empowerment and expansion within your space, while simultaneously extending and amplifying the energy field around the contribution made to the mutual aid fund. It’s a true win-win for your environment and the community!

Coil Pitcher with Yellow Salt Soda Fired 18” x 6”
Elizabeth is an intuitive artist. Creative energy moves through her into everything she touches. Exploring the self in relation to the world through embodiment practices and creation.
In her words: "My practice with clay begins before the clay. I sit. I breathe. I notice the energy of my body, the energy of the land I am sitting on, the energy of the world around me. And I feel sensations that feel like resistance, tension, energy stuck in my body, and I get curious about that place. What am I holding here? What message or image comes when I feel into it? Then I ask that space what it needs in order to release.
Sometimes it only wants acknowledgement, to be held in awareness while breath comes in and goes out. I imagine the breath carrying particles of that tension out of my body and into the air, where the plants and trees will recycle it into fresh oxygen. Sometimes I need to move through specific poses to shift stagnant energy. Sometimes that looks like flailing about, reaching for the euphoric feeling of a stretch after a long stillness. Sometimes dance is what is needed. I believe in the power of love and gratitude."

Original painting by Megan Mueller, Founder of Whistle
The story
This painting began on top of Airport Mesa in Sedona, Arizona. I sat down on the red rock at the vortex site, closed my eyes, and let the wind and the quiet do their work. I went up there hoping to hear a message. What came was a question, so clear it felt spoken directly to me: How can I serve?
I carried those words home and painted what I felt in that moment. Two hands rise from opposite sides of the canvas, one in deep greens and one in ocean blues, reaching toward each other like the mountains in Sedona. Between them, in the open space where they almost meet, the question waits.
To me, the hands are giving and receiving, earth and water, you and your neighbor. The question belongs to whoever is standing in front of it.
