RMIT Creative - INSTA

Meet Nicole Tan, the student artist behind Get a Grip.

Born from the all-too-familiar cycle of deadlines, burnout, overthinking, and trying to hold everything together, Get a Grip is a creative wellbeing project exploring stress and the pressures of everyday life.

Combining a self-guided zine with hands-on stress ball decorating workshops, the project creates space to slow down, reset, and share small strategies for navigating everyday stress.

Hear Nicole discuss the ideas behind the project, the importance of creative self-care, and why sometimes making something with your hands can help take the pressure off.
