A_CIRCLE is a curated series of events created by Giulia Tamiazzo and Jakob Veigar based in Vienna and Reykjavik.

Art has the transformative power to inspire, heal, and connect us to ourselves and others. Yet, for many, contemporary art remains distant, confined to galleries or private collections, perceived as something that requires specialized knowledge to appreciate. Making art more accessible is our main mission, not just to democratize culture but to enhance well-being.

The intersection of contemporary art and wellness is a space rich with potential. Art invites introspection, stimulates the senses, and fosters emotional expression—all of which are vital for mental health. Integrating art into wellness practices, such as mindfulness and awareness practices can deepen these experiences. For example, engaging with abstract or thought-provoking art can help individuals explore complex emotions in a non-verbal way, offering an alternative to traditional therapeutic approaches.

We want to break down barriers, both physical and psychological. This will involve bringing art into public spaces, creating interactive installations and performances, or discovering alternative platforms to reach a wider audience.
