Green Space

Green Space art exhibition was a mental health project that I worked on for few years. I wanted to highlight how important colour, nature, community, art and the beauty of surfing are for our mental health. This exhibition consisted of 22 paintings, posters and two short films that I loved creating.

I set up a GoFundMe and a donation box at the event to collect funds for Headspace, which is an organisation that provides a range of services to improve health and wellbeing. Their services cover four core areas: mental health and wellbeing, physical and sexual health, work and study support, and alcohol and other drug services.

I held this art exhibition at The Station Boardstore in the Mid North Coast, Australia.
Thank you everyone for being there making it so special.

Also my journalist friend, Sam Rapp-Jones, wrote a beautiful article of the event and interviewed me after.

“Sonja’s graceful expertise in the water and incredible creative ability have left a unique mark on the people and communities in her orbit.”
