OUR PROCESS 

Art For Self -Reliance adopts artistic methodologies and techniques that facilitate the emergence of our deeper human spirit; a sense of play, and mechanisms to know one’s self through the lens of what we create. This practice strives to be meditative.  

Art holds the power to tap into the depths of one’s intellect and emotions, answering and designing the “why” of how we see our world, our circumstances, process our experiences and relate to our identity. 

Art For Self-Reliance combines a blend of artistic practices with relational systems using dialogue to develop well-being, “Appreciative Inquiry”/articulating the highpoints of creation and healing through happiness.
