CURRENT EXHIBITION: Creativity Is A New Formula For Life
An Exhibition of Experiments in Creativity by Local and International Artists
JUNE 18 - SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 | MAYOR’S GALLERY | 401 S. FOURTH ST.
Creativity Is A New Formula for Life is the fourth major initiative by Zoë Camper (co-founder and co-lead) and Julie Samuels (co-lead) of the Augmented Society of the Royal Society for the encouragement of the Arts (RSA) Thematic Network. Continuing their mission to connect creative thinkers from around the world, both RSA fellows and non-fellows, this project was born out of conversations following the success of their 2021 education paper, “An Opportunity to Reimagine Learning.”
This project is a response to that moment of reflection. It offers space to explore our shared humanity and ask deeper questions about purpose, creativity, connection and well-being. They believe that creative thinking is not optional; it is essential. As the world faces increasingly complex and unpredictable challenges, creativity is one of the most powerful tools we have. It helps us adapt, reimagine and move forward with resilience. It invites us to question the status quo and envision new possibilities for how we live, work and interact.
This exhibition invites you to explore creativity as a vital life force and to consider how it can shape not just our individual lives but our shared future.
Let the journey begin.
WORK ON DISPLAY: A multisensory installation combining visual art, poetry, and sound, presented as part of the exhibition “Creativity Is A New Formula For Life” at the Mayor’s Gallery.
I'm honored that Whispers of My Journey, originally featured in The Vallery, is now on display in real life as part of the exhibition "Creativity Is A New Formula For Life" at the Mayor’s Gallery.
This body of work encapsulates the intimate nature of my experiences, resonating with the subtle tones of the poetry I weave into each piece. Every artwork becomes a visual narrative, a reflection of emotion, thought, and memory, as whispers from my life’s path take shape through colour, texture, and form.
Adding a rich, immersive layer to the experience is a soundscape inspired by my poetry, including Whispers of My Journey, featuring recordings, composition, and sound design by Dr Stace Constantinou, with heartfelt poetry readings by Myrle Roach. This original auditory interpretation deepens the emotional resonance of the work, creating a space where voice, sound, and visuals intertwine.
Together, these elements form a multisensory exploration of vulnerability, resilience, and growth. Each piece becomes a quiet conversation, an invitation for viewers to reflect on their own stories while stepping into mine.
Whispers of My Journey is more than a title, it's a living, breathing experience. I'm grateful to share it in this beautiful celebration of creativity and connection.
