Impulsive Indulgences // Experiential, Conceptual Art Exhibit by Martha Valenta

Valenta’s work blurs the line between art and life, allowing visitors to not just view but feel the emotional and mental textures of ADHD. Through tactile engagement and unexpected turns, the show challenges the boundaries of traditional art, creating a space where disorder and indulgence collide with empathy.
