The exhibition will highlight each artists’ exploration of their inner world and personal interests as a way to promote positive wellbeing and personal development through art making.
The artists’ work mirrors the importance of self-reflection and the use of creative processes as a way to explore conscious and unconscious themes and experiences.
Although there are shared commonalities, each artist uses a variety of different materials, techniques and subject matters to convey their internal world, from abstract landscape and collage, to portraiture and dreamscapes. The diversity of the creative process each artist undertakes allows for a distinct range of visual work.
Exhibiting artists include: Lucy Gordon, artist and art psychotherapist; Gemma Latimer, artist and gestalt psychotherapist; Rebecca Wood, artist and art psychotherapist; and Iona Grey, artist and psychotherapist.
Rebecca Wood
Glasgow-based artist and art psychotherapist. Rebecca’s work relates to the emerging themes, messages and archetypes found in dreams and the unconscious psyche, as well as exploring automatic response work in relation to sound, music and inner emotional worlds.

Iona Grey
Iona Grey is a qualified visual artist living and working in Glasgow, also working as an art tutor and psychotherapist. Iona has over 25 years experience coordinating art groups/exhibitions and teaching a wide variety of stimulating visual art practices and techniques to individuals and community groups throughout Scotland.
6 years ago, Iona returned to her own art practice - large scale seascapes using acrylic, which nestle between reality and abstract. Her artwork takes a critical view of the complexities and simplicities of mental health - a response to her inner and outer psychological landscape, pushing it to the limits in terms of scale and variety of moods and emotions to which the viewer is drawn in by. They continue to convey the wide spectrum of emotions and feelings from which Iona has gained insight into through teaching therapeutic art workshops to adults and children with mental health issues and working as a psychotherapist.
Her paintings are also influenced by what has always surrounded her - the captivating, inspirational and ever changing light, sky and water of the west coast of Scotland, where Iona was brought up and returns to frequently for inspiration.

Lucy Gordon
Lucy Gordon studied Fine Art Painting at Glasgow School of Art from 1998 - 2002 and has maintained her personal practice since.
Working from her studio at home, Lucy’s art uses a combination of found imagery and fabricated characters to create portraits that swerve from the surreal to the sublime. Working primarily in oil paints, her subjects invite and inspire us to imagine their lives, familiar yet fictional, inscrutable and obscure; allowing us to create our own narratives about the work.
Lucy shows her work regularly in Glasgow and has had paintings exhibited in Hastings, Paris and London. She was also recently shortlisted for the Scottish Portrait Awards 2024 and the ING Discerning Eye Exhibition 2024.
Gemma Latimer
Gemma is an artist and psychotherapist living in Glasgow. Her artwork focuses on themes of deconstruction and reconstruction, a process which crosses over to her psychotherapy practise.
Her practise serves as a vessel of transformation for the unconscious, creating a bridge to better understand of her inner world, body and psyche. Working mainly through collage and mixed media, Gemma enjoys the tangibility of creating artwork by hand, only digitalising at final stages.
Clients include BBC, Ted Baker, BAFTA, Marie Claire, The Times, Classic FM, Radio Times and The Irish Times, amongst others. She has worked as a Visiting Illustration Lecturer at Goldsmiths University, London since 2009 and is author of internationally selling, The Wallpaper Colouring Book.
