Xanthe Wyse is having an art as therapy exhibition called Speak at Red Rock Gallery from Saturday, September 19 to Tuesday, September 22.

“I use creative expression to process and transform trauma and to express what I can't find words for,” she says.

The exhibition is sponsored by the Creative Communities Scheme.
