✨ Meet the artist: Vesna Okaikoi
Vesna Okaikoi is an active member of @ageexchange visual arts community, living with young-onset dementia.
During the pandemic, Vesna took to her art and poetry to express everything she was experiencing at the time. Much of what she created was inspired by what she could see from her window, her garden, and her love of nature. Her works are now exhibited as part of an exciting new partnership between The Bridge at Waterloo and Age Exchange.
Come and see her work until 25 May!
