ABOUT THE ARTIST

Mia Buch (Boo), of Des Moines, believes that art is gift giving, and that the artist must care about those who receive their work. People trust artists to put something new inside of them; an experience, a comparison, a perspective, a new way of understanding – themselves, the world, or others.

As an artist, Mia honors this responsibility and strives, through her work; to gift joy, foster empathy, deepen connections, and respect her viewers enough to challenge them to grow.

Her work manifests as performance, experiential, and mixed media living poetry.

Please contact via email at mialbuch@gmail.com if you are interested in having Mia participate in performance-based exhibitions, creating installation or interactive experiences, or to come and recite poetry. If you are curious about any of her other creative skillsets – it never hurts to ask!

The above pulls in each of the parents within the artist-discipline taxonomy , which is good, if I want to display them alone without their children.

I need to probably display these like this:

Dance: Ballroom, General, Hip Hop, Jazz.

Design: General, Graphic

Will need to figure out how to return the sub categories (artist-discipline) for each parent individually and then loop through all parents assigned to the CPT (artist) being viewed.

In this section I was able to successfully pull all sub categories that belongs to the 2 parents selected. This could be good if I was trying to show all possible choices under that parent, but what I really need is to pull just the selected ones back.
