For nearly three decades, Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) has been observed nationally in October as an opportunity to bring light to the issue of domestic violence and its effects on victims, survivors, families and communities.
Self-taught painter, VaiBionic has exhibited her work on a constant basis since first coming to prominence in 2022. It was painting that fueled her recovery, after surviving a violent attack.
The abrasive, yet delicate, approach towards – and philosophy behind – her art has acted as a catalyst for what has been referred to as “Apocalyptic Impressionism”.
Vai’s work has appeared in both solo and group exhibitions and has received a great deal of critical praise, admiration, and respect due to her unapologetic portrayal of beauty uprooted through her own personal trauma and suffering.
