About Us
At Colle, we're not just making collages; we're helping people reclaim permission to be creative, reconnect with themselves, and access original thinking through mindful art-making that requires no previous experience.
Our Mission
At Colle, we believe creativity is for everyone and that it can reconnect you with your true self.
Mindful collage isn't a luxury. It's a practical tool for processing emotions, managing overwhelm, unlocking original ideas, and building genuine connection.
Our mission is to make creative wellbeing part of everyday life, proving you don't need talent or training, just permission to pause, create, and reconnect with what matters.
We offer mindful collage workshops for schools, workplaces, communities, and private celebrations. It's about presence and process, not performance or product.
Meet Our Founder,
Sarah Ellen Masters
As a dyslexic, I learned early that the education system wasn't built for how I think and learn. That disconnection from creativity and sense of worth followed me into adulthood, eventually leading to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome at 21.
During my Masters research in 2023, I discovered what had been missing: a daily creative practice that allowed me to process emotions and reconnect with myself without judgment. Collage gave me the tools the system never did.
I realized the gap wasn't just for dyslexics. It's for anyone who's been told they're not creative, who's overwhelmed, or who's lost connection with themselves. Creative wellbeing shouldn't be optional or reserved for crisis. It should be part of everyday life.
Now, as a practicing artist, I bring mindful collage to schools, workplaces, and communities, making creative wellbeing accessible to everyone, regardless of background or experience.
Every human being
is an artist,
a freedom being,
called to participate in
transforming and reshaping the conditions,
thinking and structures
that shape and inform our lives.
