“Being at Joya: AiR was a fantastic experience that I am already missing. It was so fabulous to meet so many new and inspiring people over the 4 weeks I spent there, I feel so lucky to have been able to make connections with such amazing people from all over.
Time has a way of moving very slowly at Joya, but it’s a wonderful way to work where you feel no pressure or rush but everything just flows quite naturally. I feel creatively re-energised and was able to build a foundation of work that I am very happy with.
Thank you a million times to Donna and Simon for fostering this creative environment, and in such a beautiful space. It was so comfortable, nourishing, welcoming and open”.
