SOLILO · A WORLD OF STORIES

Stories, shared with care.

Receive a true story shared each month — sent quietly to your inbox.

Share a true story. If you choose simply to be heard or if you want it to be shared. We would love to hear it <3

WHAT SOLILO IS

A quiet practice of stories and art.

Each month, one true story is shared by someone real. It arrives in your inbox. You can simply receive it. Or, if it stirs something, respond by creating: words, image, sound, taste, motion. Whatever the story moves through you.

The next month, we share some of what came back, alongside a new story. A small, continuous rhythm.

Host a Solilo dinner.

There is something beautiful about gathering with your people and exchanging stories and art.

If you would like to host your own Solilo dinner I would love to get on a phone call with you and provide support and resources to help create a beautiful evening.

What Holding a Dinner Looks Like

  • 01

    the beginning

    Story.

    Someone shares a true story from their life. No more than ten minutes when read aloud. Simple or complex, joyful or heavy — the only thing that matters is that it’s as honest and truthful as is remembered.

  • 02

    the response

    Art.

    The story passes to another — no context, just the words. They sit with it, and then, in their own way, they answer. A painting, a poem, a song, a dish, a sculpture, a dance.

  • 03

    the table

    Gathering.

    When the practice is brought to a table, each person reads aloud the story they originally submitted and the person who received it presents the piece they made in response.

  • 04

    the unfolding

    Witness.

    A story becomes something new in another’s hands and the room holds the witnessing. This is how every story has meaning, and how art quietly brings us closer together.
