An emerging artist who works in several media, Sarah-Chastity Johnson explores the human condition from the perspective of a woman who has experienced and survived multiple sexual assaults and domestic abuse. Diagnosed with CPSTD and other mental and physical disabilities, Chas paints her story as both a self-healing journey for herself and as a therapeutic guide for others who have encountered personal trauma of all types. As owner of Smash Studio Co., Chas offers community members the opportunity to ‘Art it Out’, smashing paint covered plates against an art canvas, a process that invites them to reclaim their power by turning anger into beautiful art.
