A dream to help others and save an artist's soul in achieving this dream.
Wellington
This page is set up for my friend Holly. She has endured a lot recently with illness, the destruction of over 6 years work and the disappearance of some most prized possessions including a lot of jewellery and other precious items .
But Holly is determined not to give up and wants to turn this negative into a positive, keeping the slashed art and framing them under glass as a collection. These will then be auctioned off with all proceeds being donated to the Women's Refuge.
As every artist dreams of having their own studio gallery, so did Holly. For a number of years she has worked to develop a collection of art and photography in the hopes of taking the plunge and following her dreams. The dream is to open a small studio where she can work from, but also to have a space where young people can come to. A place where they can feel safe and hang out with others like themselves. A place of expression where no-one is judged or abused.
This studio is not just a gallery. It is a place of safety, it is a dream. It is a haven from the darkness.
This dream has almost been violently taken from her one night when nearly all her artwork was slashed and destroyed. But in an attempt to keep going and to show all young people that if you work hard and endure the hardship you will succeed. She will take this collection and use it as her stepping stone to show that even the worst things in life can be used in some positive way.
Thank you for any generosity and wish you every happiness in life. Thank you!
I have set this page up to try to help realise a friends dream which has almost been taken away from her.
