Intimacy and humanness between strangers is something we have drifted further and further from in the western world. My dream is to shift our disconnected societies to ones which embody a close sense of community. I believe art is the answer.

I’m Vix, 19 years old and just got back from solo travelling in India (classic I know). I am half danish, half American and grew up in London. Recently I have been facilitating Art therapy, meditation and yoga classes for young children (aged 5-16 years old). This brought me a profound amount of joy and peace. I have come to understand arts powers of connecting and healing the communities it creates. I hope to project supportive energy through art, to paint feelings of openness and intimacy between artists and viewers.
​
My aspirations are to promote healing through spirituality, activism and creativity. I’m grateful to hone in on these skills at the Royal hospital for Neuro-disability where I will be leading breath-work sessions and art classes. In September, I will begin my journey at Savanah college of art and design. At SCAD I look forward to exploring new skills in varying art mediums, alongside psychology and sustainability courses.
Art has uplifted me as well as grounded me. I want to share this feeling with others.
