Madeleine Hay is a multidisciplinary artist creating through the avenues of art, design, dance, fashion, and poetry. Born & raised on a sandy, windswept island far out to sea, Madeleine now lives among blue grass meadows finding divine inspiration in the endless beauty all around.
What are we without God, what is life without art and what is this world without wonder?
