About



Neogy’s production company, Wolf Woman Productions Inc., was inspired by “Women Who Run With the Wolves” by Clarissa Pinkola Estes. Wolf, the Wild Woman, is a metaphor used to describe the force that lies within every woman. A Wolf Woman is the Wild Woman; a powerful soul who never forgets who she is and what she stands for. She is robust, inventive, loyal and fierce. She has eyes all over her. She is led and guided by her superior intuition.


Currently in Pre-Production:
Bloods Words, a Warrior’s Walk


I sit with the bald eagle in her wild art gaze
Drying my wet wings as my eye melts into the rippling sound of the duende of poetry and motion

Hear my words
Heed my growl
Fear my piercing scream

I am the winged fire flame of the sword of cinema

‘BLOOD WORDS’ IN DEPTH







She has no name, for she is so vast.

She lives at the end of time,
She lives at the edge of the world.

She is both friend and mother
to all those who have lost their way,
all those who have lost their self identity,
and all those who have lost the love of themselves.


She, Wolf Woman, lives in all of us.
She is manifesto for all women,
regardless of age, race, creed, or religion,
to return to their roots,
to unmask their own truths,
to realize their core, and
to confront what they fear the most...
their own power.


- Clarissa Pinkola Estes

With the wild nature as ally and mentor, we see not through two eyes only, but through the many eyes of intuition. With intuition, we are like the starry night. We gaze at the world through a thousand eyes.

The Wild Woman carries all the medicines of stories, words and songs; all the mending tools of dances, signs and symbols. She is both vehicle and destination. She is the essence of the Female Soul.

All women are born gifted. To live close to the instinctive nature means to establish one’s creative territory, find one’s pack, be in one’s body with certainty and pride. It means to act in one’s behalf, to find what one belongs to. It means to rise with dignity, to proceed as a powerful being who is friendly but never tame. The Wild Woman is the one who thunders in the face of injustice. She’s the one who keeps a woman going when she thinks she is done for. The Wild Woman is fluent in the languages of dreams, images, passion and poetry.

She lives in women everywhere. She is mother of el duende, the goblin wind of creativity. The wild nature belongs to you. She truly belongs to all. Without us Wild Woman dies. Without Wild Woman, we die.

Para Vida
, for true life, both must live.


- Clarissa Pinkola Estes
