Creative Future hosted a free event ‘Meet the Artist: Liz Atkin.’ Our ‘Meet the Artist/Writer’ series showcases writers and artists from under-represented backgrounds and how they got their work ‘out there’.

Liz Atkin is a visual artist based in London. Liz’s life was dominated by skin picking disorder for more than 20 years. Despite tragedy and childhood circumstances that would have left anyone in despair, Liz confronted her circumstances with creativity, turning despair into healing and advocacy. An internationally acclaimed artist, Liz will share her story of triumph and inspiration.
