This issue explores the practice of Wanu, an Indigenous singer from the Yawanawa tribe in the Brazilian Amazon, whose songs express sacred wisdom and provide healing.

RAYS explores female-identifying artists whose work serves as both a personal spiritual practice and outward creative expression. Throughout history and across the world, religion and spirituality have often been dominated by male figures and institutions, resulting in the overshadowing and exclusion of women and other marginalised groups in the practice of these traditions. Drawing from my personal experience growing up in a Sufi Muslim community, where women faced restrictions on practicing, art became the transformative medium through which I embarked on my spiritual journey. RAYS pays homage to those who have bravely paved the way for their unique artistic expressions of spiritual practice, celebrating the myriad ways in which creativity serves as a conduit for the divine.
