found oracle (n): Any object, person, or experience that speaks to you with deeper truth and meaning is an oracle. These oracles of the everyday world tell stories that hold up a mirror to our shared human experiences. Their stories celebrate your existence and invite you to connect more deeply to yourself - and, therefore, the world around you.
The oracle that calls has a story for you today. Its story has chosen you because it relates to your own life and story in some way and was meant to find you at this exact time, in this exact place.
Site-specific, interactive exhibits are available with the oracles in the physical realm. Read about installation concepts and the oracles as experiential storytelling art via the button below.

Meet Bailey Lewis
The storytelling artist behind Found Oracles.
Bailey Lewis is an experiential storytelling artist (MFA, University of South Carolina). She combines words, images, and reimagined materials to create intuitive story experiences. In Bailey's work, each story chooses its recipient, inviting audiences into personal and collective explorations of connection to ourselves, each other, and all that is.
Bailey’s work has been exhibited and published internationally. Most recently, she received a Public Art Grant from ArtFields Festival for the installation of her work, The Gumball Machine of Great Fortune. She is the author of award-winning stories, which have been featured in The Wigleaf Top 50 and nominated for the Pushcart Prize. Her approach to interactive storytelling has been featured by Adobe, Progress, and others.
If you can’t find Bailey, look by the water. She’s probably researching an ancient mermaid or listening to a starfish tell its secrets. Or, you can always find her online at baileysendsword.com.
