JournalJournal — Craft, Wellbeing & Community
This space explores textile art, craft, and creative practice as tools for wellbeing, identity, and community connection.
Through essays, research-informed writing, and reflections from my workshops, I share insights on queer craft histories, creative wellbeing, and inclusive, community-led making. These posts are for artists, curious readers, and organisations interested in how creativity can support mental health, storytelling, and meaningful connection — both individually and collectively.
