Minus Cloud Nine is primarily dedicated to promoting mental health through their work and workshops. The team is also deeply passionate about female empowerment and breast cancer awareness, driven by their personal experiences with loved ones affected by the disease. Founder, Charlotte, began her artistic journey by crafting cloud figures to symbolise mental health, inspired by caring for someone who described their depression as a 'gray cloud.' Charlotte’s, dedication intensified after losing her Aunt Silvia and nearly losing her Nanna Audrey to breast cancer.
As a trained counsellor, Charlotte supports clients facing long-term health challenges, witnessing both the heartbreak and inspiration these illnesses bring. Through Minus Cloud Nine, she merges creativity with counselling, offering workshops like sewing, candle making, and cushion printing to keep hands busy and minds open. Our artwork reflects the inner strength and resilience of those we support, honouring their bravery and spirit.
