Artists

Art Is The Movement is a collective representing interdisciplinary artists from contrasting artistic and cultural backgrounds. We see the ingenuity of the creative process and the creative potential within each person. We believe that art can be a multi-faceted experience and as a collective, we hope to contribute to the movement of a more creatively oriented society.
