ARTIST & FACILITATOR STATEMENT (Reema Chhabra)

I'm a multidisciplinary artist living in Toronto. I make abstract art inspired by ethnic and tribal themes, with hidden details in the texture. It is made digitally on the iPad and printed post production. As a polymath, I’ve explored varied creative mediums like - calligraphy, pencil sketching, font-designing, graphic-design, thought comics etc. I’m a learning facilitator and coach and I manage a Nonprofit called The Wall and Us, a free mental health support site to chat with a listener about your life situation.
