Cut From the Heart: Collage Journey Guided by the Heart

This April, in honor of Black Women's History Month, Detox Art invites you into something softer — a space where creativity isn't a performance, and expression isn't graded.

Cut from the Heart is a mindfulness-based collage experience hosted in partnership with Moredinary Art and led by Collage Artist, Roco. This gathering was created for Black and Brown women (and men) who want a different kind of Sunday — one that feels like exhaling.

We'll open with a guided meditation to quiet the noise and bring you into the present moment. From there, Roco will lead a live collage demonstration — not to teach you the "right" way, but to show you that there isn't one. Then, you'll create your own piece. No instructions to follow. No finished product to achieve. Just you, your intuition, and whatever wants to come forward.

Collage is one of the most forgiving art forms there is. It's tearing, layering, choosing, releasing — and in that process, something true tends to emerge.

Within this sacred space, we’re holding space for women: past and present, living and transitioned. If you’d like to pay homage to us, bring a physical photo (framed or not), and place it on the altar or at your work station, whatever is most comfortable for you.

— A Black or Brown woman seeking creative community outside of networking spaces

— Craving a way to decompress that doesn't involve a screen
