SUMMARY:Let It Go-Art Expression | Uptown Wellness Chicago Collective
DESCRIPTION:What if you could step away from the noise of everyday life for a moment and turn something you've been carrying into something visual?\n\nLet It Go is an interactive creative wellness experience designed to help you pause\, reset\, and release.\n\nYou don't need to be an artist. There is no image to copy\, no template to follow\, and no "right" way to create. Instead\, Victoria guides you through simple and intuitive creative prompts using lines\, shapes\, colors\, metaphors\, and abstract forms.\n\nSunday\, October 25th\, 2026\n\n1:00 PM\n\nLocation : Yoga Body Elements\n\n4007 N. Broadway\, Chicago\, IL\n\nYou might choose to explore stress\, pressure\, frustration\, an unresolved situation\, a difficult emotion\, or simply something that no longer deserves so much space in your mind.\n\nThrough the creative process\, you'll transform your thoughts and feelings into an abstract visual expression\, creating your own personal Let It Go piece.\n\nThe experience is guided\, playful\, reflective\, and surprisingly freeing. You'll create\, pause\, connect with others\, and give yourself permission to see what you've been carrying from a different perspective.\n\nYou don't have to explain everything.\n\nYou don't have to be "good" at art.\n\nYou simply have to be willing to create.\n\n \n\n -\n\nBIO\n\nVictoria Isikman\n\nVictoria Isikman is an artist\, creative facilitator\, curator\, and the founder of VF Creative Events / Victoria's Fine Art.\n\nWith 20 years of experience as a professional artist and 15 years of experience creating and facilitating creative experiences\, Victoria brings together art\, reflection\, and human connection to create meaningful experiences for individuals\, groups\, and organizations.\n\nHer approach is intentionally different from a traditional art class. Participants are not expected to be artists\, and there is no copying\, no pressure to create something "perfect\," and no judgment. Instead\, Victoria uses lines\, shapes\, colors\, metaphors\, and abstract forms to help people explore ideas and emotions through the creative process.\n\nHer signature approach\, Victoria's Metaforms\, uses visual metaphors as a bridge between creativity and personal experience. It makes art accessible to everyone\, including those who may not consider themselves creative.\n\nThrough her Creative Wellness Experiences\, Victoria explores themes such as letting go\, stress\, balance\, communication\, connection\, joy\, and appreciation. Her experiences are designed to create space for people to pause\, reconnect with themselves and others\, and experience the restorative power of creativity.\n\nVictoria has worked with organizations and professional teams including the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC)\, Kellogg\, PwC\, and The Trade Desk.\n\nOriginally from Turkey\, Victoria has an international background that includes living and working in France and Brazil. She is also an oil painter\, curator\, and author of Phoenix in Me and Whispers of the Heart.\n\nToday\, through VF Creative Events\, Victoria creates experiences that go beyond making art. Her work invites people to slow down\, express themselves freely\, see things from a different perspective\, and create space for something new.
