FEMALE EMPOWERMENT ON A CANVAS SERIES: MEET HARRIET ADKIN
By Raquel Figueiredo for Zaftyg Magazine
“Throughout my life I have always turned to The Arts as a form of therapy (without realising it!). Whether that was through painting, writing or acting, practising art anchors me to the present; it allows me to heal, process emotion and be with myself. With my drawings, I wanted to merge art with my appreciation for nature and to raise awareness to global warming in a different way through creating sustainable art. I am also the founder of art and well-being brand Burnt Orange City, which is all about connecting people to their innate creativity through creative and wellness practices. When we embrace creativity we live with more freedom, purpose and adventure, and less fear and stress – we go back to a child-like state, which is incredibly healing. We’re in the process of planning some virtual workshops so stay tuned!”, she tells us.
