Street Art: Robyn Forman's work is all about the power of healing

The Big Issue's Street Art page gives talented, marginalised individuals an outlet for creative expression

‘Resources 1’ 

“My work is about healing, forgiveness and reconciliation,” says Robyn, who is in her late 50s and lives in Brighton. “I come from the school of hard knocks. A recent diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis on top of my bipolar is difficult. However art rescued me – the artistic process gives me relief from the difficulties of managing my health issues.”

Support out street artists over at The Big Issue Shop.
