Molly Christodoulou – Compassionate Canvas
“An exploration of healing through paint”
I created Compassionate Canvas as an exploration of my healing through colour, texture, and form. The abstracted landscapes and nature-inspired paintings are not just reflections of the world around me, but expressions of the joy, peace, and connection that I’ve found through art. Each one is a piece of my perpetual pursuit towards self-acceptance.
The process itself is a vital part of navigating my experiences. The tactile nature of working with multiple layers of paint mirrors the complexity of being human. I often use my hands which allows me to leave traces of my own vulnerability and energy within the work, creating a dialogue between the physicality of the medium and the emotional depth it carries. Every mark, every stroke, is an act of letting go, of accepting the present moment and embracing authenticity.
I encourage you to step into this world, where the beauty of nature and abstraction intertwine to create a space for reflection, renewal, and a celebration of the freedom found in creativity. This exhibition is a reminder that healing is not linear, and although challenging is full of colour, movement, and transformation.
Everyone is welcome 25th January 5-7pm for some free drinks and arty chat surrounded by colour.
