About
Inna Vator.
A private studio, a small practice, a particular kind of work. I keep it small on purpose so that what happens in the room can actually happen.
I work privately with a small number of clients, creating personalised artistic experiences that go beyond technique. My background includes fine-art training at Pratt Institute and Parsons School of Design, combined with a certified art-therapy approach (non-clinical).
The work I do isn't about producing a pretty image. It's about making the kind of room — physically, emotionally — where something honest can come up. People arrive carrying something. Sometimes they don't know what. The studio is built to give that something a way out.
My practice draws from psychology, fine-art instruction, and a slower, more deliberate way of moving through a session. There is no template. There is no script. Each session is shaped around the person in the room.
