Liisi Kõuhkna’s personal exhibition “Connection”

Instincts about death, life, knowledge of sexual behavior, and spirituality stem from a shared collective subconscious passed down from our ancestors (C.G. Jung). Mankind has since turned to natural aspects – animals, landscapes, the weather – to find the cause of human existence (Jones, 2020).

10 years of experience in the field of creative therapy provides an opportunity to come into contact with a wide variety of personalities, lives, institutions and systems, and creativity. What does it mean to be human?

Art is not just an object in a museum, but also an experience of the act of creation and meeting it (Sloan, 2013).

When art is a channel of communication, it can be a stimulus, an impetus for the viewer to create new ideas and connections.

Liisi Kõuhkna (1987) graduated from art therapy (BA, MA), and has been involved in ceramics for almost 10 years, and has studied jewelery at the ARS House for the past six months. She has worked as an art therapist with a psychiatric target group in several hospitals, practicing with people from infants to the elderly. In addition, conducted trainings for adult creative therapy groups. Member of the board of the Estonian Association of Creative Therapies in 2018-2020, continues to be a member.
