Magazine: The Sea of Emotion

Exploring the Connection Between the External and Internal

My work delves into the intricate and ever-evolving relationship between the external world and our internal experiences. Drawing inspiration from memory, emotion, mythology, and a deep connection to place, I aim to capture the unseen. Through fine pen work, I map out what often feels invisible and unspoken, bringing these hidden layers to life in a tangible form.

In Stones Flow, the artist explores the raw geometry and silent movement found in basalt landscapes. Using only pen, they build an intricate world where textures, formations, and flowing lines speak to the layered history of the Earth. Inspired by volcanic coastlines and crystalline structures, the piece captures the tension between solidity and motion—between the permanence of rock and the fluid forces that shape it.

Exhibition included Ten pieces of my work.

"Torn between worlds between worlds" memories and experiences that may feel chaotic or without a clear purpose. By revisiting places of childhood- Spaces shared with family, familiar landscapes, and historic buildings – the work reflects on themes of belonging and identity. Each place holds fragments of memory, moments of connection and a universal search for fitting in. Through connection to heritage and memory, the pieces offer a grounding story of resilience and self-discovery. Together, they invite viewers to reflect on their own place of belonging, the sites of their own stories and the way we all seek a place to call home.

  

Exploring Creativity with "Stones Flow"

Working with digital tools and my original piece, "Stones Flow," I ventured into a realm I had always been hesitant to explore—colour. Traditionally, my digital expertise kept me within a safe, monochromatic palette, as incorporating colour felt overwhelming and unfamiliar. However, with this piece, I challenged myself to break free from those constraints. By embracing colour, I discovered a vibrant new layer of creativity that brought "Stones Flow" to life in ways I never imagined. This experience has taught me that stepping outside of comfort zones often leads to remarkable and unexpected results.

Courage to work with colour through a moment of Mental Health

''She took root in silence'' is my response to the overwhelming and often silent experience of mental health struggle.
It blends horror symbolism with natural forms to reflect the ways our inner battles can root themselves into identity.

The central figure- a woman grown into a tree. Represents how pain and silence can entangle the self, restricting growth and voice. Her vine- stitched mouth and hollow eyes are metaphors for emotional suppression, while the bark and branching vines reflect how trauma embeds itself deeply, like rings in wood.

This piece is both a release and a response - a way to visualise what words cannot often hold. In creating it, I invite the viewers to confront the tangled, often haunting nature of mental health and to notice what lies beneath the surface.

Edition to Artful Prize, One of four pieces picked for finals.

The Hour Of Falling leaves reflects my exploration of myth, balance, cyclical change. The autumn equinox, with its equal measure of light and dark, becomes a metaphor for the fragile threshold between seasons- a pause in time, where transformation begins. My work often carries hidden symbols and in this piece I continued my practice of embedding a washing machine motif. For me, this object represents the cycles of life and time, mental health, and the noise that is apparent in good and bad days.

The dragon, entwined around the equinox clock , embodies guardianship of eternal rhythms, while the robed figure, stands as a keeper of balance. Surrounding details- owls, pumpkins and drifting leaves- anchor the piece in the harvest and natural worlds, blending whimsical with symbolic. My aim was to create a work that is both playful and contemplative, inviting viewers to notice the hidden cycles that shape not only the world around us , but also the stories we carry.

"The Quiet Between Notes"

By Donna Mindart

A book about Grief, Ready to be released on the 22nd December 2025

Fifteen-year-old Lena hasn’t spoken much since her brother’s death the year before. The world feels muted — like every sound has been turned down low. Her mum works double shifts, her friends don’t know what to say anymore, and Lena feels invisible, caught between the noise of everyone else’s lives.

But when she’s assigned to work on a music therapy project at school — recording sounds that represent emotions — she begins to notice the small noises she’d been blocking out: rain hitting the windows, the hum of the fridge, her heartbeat in her ears.

Slowly, through these sounds and her growing friendship with Kai, a new student who hides his own scars behind sarcasm and playlists, Lena begins to rebuild her inner world — one note at a time.
