Who we are & why we are

Welcome to the gallery site of Broken Light Collective. We are artists of all levels and abilities who are affected by mental illness. We create and we share our work for the therapeutic benefits to us, as well as others who may be struggling and feeling scared and alone. Together we can move from disconnected to collective.

Please say a warm Earth Day hello to first-time contributor Jasmine Soto, a Fashion Designer from New York living with Bipolar Disorder. Jasmine is also a multimedia artist who loves photography, collage and watercolor. When she feels low, she tries to motivate herself to get up and out by taking her camera on a healing journey. She tries to focus on her surroundings and capture the moment. She has found that being in nature uplifts her. Jasmine is a member of the non-profit Fountain Gallery where she is a volunteer and a participating artist. 

About the photo: “In springtime all is made new. These are the new blossoms at Astoria Park in Queens. This photo makes me feel like the Earth is singing a new song.  After a long winter the spring season brings light and color which certainly help with mood.
