VetArt interview with Jay Van Schelt of The Harmonetiks Project. It is all about the Easy Breath technique.
“VETART encourages community through art making. This process is the best defense against isolation and Veteran Suicide.
Artists who are showcasing their work at this exhibit are mostly Veterans, but Military service affects an entire ecosystem of individuals,
from Veterans to caretakers, families, significant others, and active duty members from many branches of this ecosystem.
Therefore, the Artworks shown in this exhibit will include works from members from many branches of this ecosystem.
VETART is proud of the of the Artists who have put in hours of work to developing their craft, engaging with our community and advocating for themselves throughout the process. These qualities are reflecting in the work you will see in this exhibit.”
