I am a nurse and theatre artist who practices therapeutic humor and creative drama. My stage is the hospital corridors.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I do not only create art! 🌹 I practice it. While a painting may inspire emotions over years, my art happens in the present moment. Through therapeutic humor and creative drama, I focus on the healing power of art where I can witness emotional change and receive feedback instantly. This is the art I live every day.
Where do you find inspiration?My purpose is not to focus on emotions ten years later, but to help build the emotional strength that will carry a person safely into those ten years. This belief inspires my work every day. Through creative drama and therapeutic humor, I find inspiration in people’s courage during difficult moments and their ability to rediscover hope.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $25,000 to strengthen my Motivational Nursing work, where art and healthcare come together through therapeutic humor and creative drama. This support would help me develop training programs, workshops, and practical tools that connect healing and creativity. My goal is to build a strong model in the United States that shows how art can transform healthcare.
