Final set of artists & poets:
Lauren Rudolph is an artist based in New York who

and feels connected to her senses from where springs the magic. It also empowers her and gives her the courage of being
willing to shed her skin and to be born anew. Her
works are mostly soulful and tug the right chords. She has a
home-based studio for children called the Little
Light Art Studio.
Liz Ramos-Prado is a Peruvian artist who recently
completed her MA in Design Management and Cultures at London College of
Communication. Her works are in ballpoint pen and her work is a continuous

relations; inspired by the surroundings, people, and everyday realities taking
women as the main subject particularly during this pandemic.

a blog where she sometimes thinks aloud the thoughts that cross her mind. Mini’s
writing has its roots in her own experiences as well as those of others she has
met and interacted with in the course of her life in India and the UAE.
Namratha Varadharajan,
from Bangalore, stumbled into the magical rabbit hole of writing when she
paused her career in engineering to indulge in motherhood. She writes poems
that explore human emotions and relationships, our interconnectedness with
nature and tries to chip at the prejudices that plague us, one syllable at a
time. She enjoys experimentation with forms and a cup full of imagery but
hesitates at rhyme. An ardent and intense blogger, her poems and short stories have
been published (/upcoming) in various anthologies and webzines.
