In 2020, I embarked on a transformative journey into holistic art therapy at the Academy of Holistic Arts in Vienna, seeking to reconnect with my inner artist.

Having spent a considerable time in the Design world, I felt a deep longing to give more space to the artist within me. Simultaneously, I yearned to share the profound impact art has had on my life and thinking, as well as to explore the depths of my inner world. 

​

There's something magical about the process of expressing oneself through art—it's like entering a state of flow, a moment of pure being. When you let go of the fixation on the outcome and immerse yourself in the present, you're not just creating; you're experiencing an intuitive, soulful expression.

It's a beautiful dance between the artist, emotions and the moment.

After this flow, there's a reflective return, a chance to ponder over the thoughts that were within, waiting to find expression. It's a space where the inner self unfolds, unrestricted and unfiltered. Whether it's a canvas, an improv theater stage, a dance, or a poem, everything you create becomes your unique piece of art. A reflection of your inner universe and a tribute to the exquisite beauty of unrestricted self-expression.

Although I've completed three years of the five-year program, unexpected personal reasons led me to take a pause. Nevertheless, I eagerly anticipate the day when I can resume and complete the remaining two years.
