Michelle Baharier

I was trained as a fine artist and worked in performance art, and was the first artist to put art on the telephone.

I believe that art has a wider context than market or money and I have actively sought to find the purpose of art and its place in society.

I set up Cooltan arts in its current guise and have been running a gallery and 8 classes.

Coolltan Arts is there to enable people with mental distress to fulfill their potential. And it works!
