Fiula’s ‘Green Light Red Light’ Music Video >> 

I created this song inspired by the adrenaline you might get from go-karting, cars, and amusement parks…. me and my siblings got creative as they filmed the music video with a camera lent to us from West Darling Arts. Every single piece of the song was created from nothing, no loops were used, and everything in the music production was 100% original.

Fiula, Age 16

Amaya’s ‘Beneath The Skin’ Art Piece >> 

I am an otherkin (therian and fictionkin) who hasn’t come out to anyone yet. I figured what better way to express my inner self than through the thing I love the most. This drawing depicts my favourite memory from my time as this creature, that being just a simple walk along the desert without anyone else to disrupt it. I did it over four days and about fifteen odd hours. Hope you enjoy.

Amaya, Age 13
