Blind Spot

By Nox Nackman

Blind Spot

As an artist, my creative process is deeply connected to my neurodivergent identity. I view art as a powerful way to explore and express emotions, thoughts, and sensory experiences that extend beyond what words can express. The world can feel overwhelming and chaotic, but through art, I create a space where I can process and make sense of those intense emotions. Taking risks in my work feels like a bold step, allowing me to challenge expectations and embrace the unpredictable nature of creativity. Art, for me, is like a language without barriers, an open and nonjudgmental space that accepts all perspectives, no matter how unconventional. The blank canvas becomes an invitation for me to explore concepts that I may not be able to articulate verbally. This process of creating art feels sacred and freeing, as it taps into my inner world in ways that are otherwise inaccessible. Inspiration for my work often comes from the sensory-rich environment around me; the way light plays on surfaces, the subtle textures of objects, or the vivid colors in nature. These sensory details shape my material choices and techniques as I strive to capture moments of clarity in an otherwise overwhelming world. Ultimately, art allows me to express my perspective, and to celebrate the creativity and individuality that it brings.
