Share a personal project!

Whatever your medium and whatever your story, we want to hear from you. If you’re a painter like Laolu, share a piece of work that speaks to part of your story. If you work in another medium, or even if you’re not a visual artist, let us know what you’re working on or thinking about:

What’s your medium, and how does your personal story show up in your work?
Consider the expectations that influence your creativity, either from the external world or from inside yourself. Share one, if you’d like to.
In the class, Laolu shares the practice he calls The Sacred Art of the Ori. If you could name your creative practice, what would you call it?

Revealing yourself through your work can be frightening, but it's also a powerful way to connect and help others with similar stories feel seen. Use the project space to practice sharing unapologetically!
