[Past Event] The Art of Corsage and Masking: Miss Martha & Melbourne Art Therapy Studio

“As a person with Autism I believe it’s important to share diverse stories, including those of people with disabilities. Often, these stories don’t get enough attention and I am excited that people will be able to see mine.”

Exhibiting in St Heliers Street Gallery this February, Miss Martha (Maya) will be exhibiting a range of works created in her time working with art therapist Robyn deVries in the Convent Building’s Melbourne Art Therapy Studio.

Over the last few years, the works became Maya’s way of self-expression and acceptance when traditional education paths weren’t suitable, and have transformed into explorations of themes including ageism and societal expectations for women.
