Personal Artwork
Trish Duggan, a noted glass artist herself, has created tens of thousands of her own pieces of glass art some of which are on display at Imagine Museum. She believes that creating art gives individuals an opportunity to take solace in their own minds. It offers the chance to process, heal, and be present in the moment. The calming, tranquil, and serene focus of attention shifts thoughts away from the problems of life. This change of focus can lead a person out of the negativity they were experiencing. The outside world disappears; problems are left just outside the door, waiting for the clearer mind that will inevitably emerge after the imagination has been set free.
