Georgia Fullerton’s art tells a deeply personal story of healing, transformation, and self-discovery. Through her art, she has navigated trauma, embraced change, and pursued personal growth. Now, as an expressive arts therapist, Fullerton helps others uncover the transformative potential of creative expression.

In 2010, Fullerton survived intimate partner violence — a pivotal event that profoundly shaped her life and practice. In the aftermath, she turned to abstract art as a means of healing. Through making, she discovered that the act of creating held the power to rebuild, repair, and reconnect her to herself.

What began as a journey of recovery has since evolved into a spiritual exploration. For Fullerton, the creative process is a space where fluid thoughts, emotions, and ideas take tangible form. She explains: “The process of artmaking inspires me and serves as both my spiritual practice and therapy. It allows me to recreate what I think about, experience, and feel.”

This exhibition showcases Fullerton’s abstract expressionist watercolours and collages, offering a glimpse into her creative process. For her, the act of making is as significant as the finished work. Together, they demonstrate how art becomes a vital tool for processing emotion and fostering personal transformation. Fullerton reflects: “Through my art, I hope to inspire others to trust their process, embrace uncertainty, and find their own path to self-discovery, healing, and change.”
