The Power of Quiet Art: Finding Solace in Simple, Subtle Creations

I've always been drawn to the beauty of quiet art – the kind of art that whispers rather than shouts, and invites contemplation rather than demands attention. As a child, I would sit amongst my sister and cousins (I have a big family!) and I was almost always the quietest one, sitting in the corner, colouring in or building something from scratch in my own little world. I think the desire to find solace amidst all the noise led me to how I work today. My art practice has taken the form of creating with natural earth minerals, slowly, carefully selecting and processing them to reveal their subtle beauty.
