As an artist without borders, my work demonstrates how art can engage participants by activating new creative spaces. In November, I traveled to Austin, Texas, to present my interactive art at the Christians in the Visual Arts (CIVA) conference. My presentation and workshop showed fellow artists how to connect with an audience through a collaborative project called “Art Mysteries.”
The hands-on activity challenged participants in team building as they problem-solved together. After coloring small tiles, the group compiled the pieces like a puzzle. This fun, team-building exercise celebrated collective community expression and exhibited how art can be part of the healing solution.
Healing in Arts activates spaces where people become part of a healing canvas. Offering community workshops and collaborations, Healing in Arts emphasizes creative care in our collective journey towards growth.
