What you'll create

You'll work with premium wool yarn, choose from custom 3D-printed frames (round or square, two colorways), and your piece will be professionally carved and finished.

The Practice

Poster Therapy started as a healing practice — making tools to reclaim the nervous system. Objects that actually affect your inner state.

"I make objects for coming back to yourself — illuminated wall portals, soft domestic objects, and tools for makers."

— Nadia Sotnikova
