With two decades of experience in the international and domestic fashion and retail industry, I have cultivated a diverse skill set that blends creativity with strategic business acumen. As the founder of a premium art jewellery brand, I’ve combined my passion for design with entrepreneurial spirit, delivering unique pieces that resonate with art lovers.I graduated from NIFT, where I developed a strong foundation in fashion, further enhancing my expertise with certifications in jewellery making and gemology from SINGEM. From a young age, I have been captivated by arts and crafts, which has fueled my journey in the creative world.However, my professional path took a transformative turn during my personal healing journey as an entrepreneur. This exploration led me to discover expressive arts therapy, highlighting the profound impact of art on emotional well-being. Embracing my passion for creativity and spirituality, I have trained in expressive art therapy from East West Centre for counselling and Training and WCC and completed a course in psychological first aid from John Hopkins via Coursera. I am now focused on becoming an intuitive expressive arts facilitator, where I aim to create safe, transformative spaces for individuals to explore self-expression and healing through art.If you share an interest in the intersection of creativity, mental health, let’s connect and explore the possibilities of collaboration!- Arathi Rajagopalan, Founder & creative Facilitator - House of Kalart - VrKa Creative Expressionsarathi@houseofkalart.com+91 7358096884@vrka.creative.expressions (on Instagram)
