Domestic abuse is an epidemic. Connection is the antidote
Something Out Of Nothing was launched by Nikki Pinto in 2014 in response to her healing from Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) due to domestic abuse. From a young age Nikki found creativity in any form is useful, if not vital, in her recovery from trauma healing. Giving a person the tools for communication, self exploration and validation enable extra salve to an injured soul.
Nikki aims to inspire and empower survivors of trauma and people suffering from mental ill health by giving an opportunity to attend workshops, sell their creative items or art, as well as build a sustainable future for the artists’ under the Something Out Of Nothing banner.
Nikki hopes to bring creative beings together to celebrate the beauty, quirkiness and depth of the human experience and to showcase talent as well as raise awareness by providing education of red flags in relationships that could lead to abuse, thus preventing people from entering into abusive relationships.
