Paulina Peavy (1901-1999) was an American artist, inventor, designer, sculptor, poet, writer, and lecturer.
Best known for her paintings, her work incorporates both mythical and spiritual iconography.
In 1932 she attended a seance held in the home of Rev.
Ida L.
Ewing, the pastor of The National Federation of Spiritual Science, Church No.
68, in Santa Ana, California.
While in a trance during one of the weekly meetings, Peavy said that she first encountered "Lacamo", a spirit from another world whom she called her "spirit muse".
When she painted, she claimed that Lacamo directed her brush.
She sometimes wore a mask to channel Lacamo’s energy.
Her paintings were exhibited in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York during her life time and have recently resurfaced in exhibitions.
The works reflect her (and Lacamo’s) belief that humanity was slowly moving toward an androgynous species, which she called “one-gender perfection,” through contact with alien species, or UFOs (Unidentified Foreign Objects).
In her consideration of a future-sex and post-masculine world, Peavy’s work aligns with those of Hilma af Klint, Agnes Pelton, and Forest Bess.
