On this episode, I talk with Mazarine Memon about her journey through art and how it ultimately took her into a whole new way of seeing. Mazarine has taken her experiences as a professional artist and created workshops for leaders, teachers, and students that provides an open platform to connect to our unique perspectives and collective experiences.  

Mazarine Memon is a Canadian neo-impressionist artist of Indian Iranian ancestry. She earned an applied arts degree from the prestigious Sophia College in Mumbai and trained at Central St. Martin’s College of Art in London.

Her work has been shown in over 40 solo and group exhibitions in 15 countries and has won several awards. Mazarine is also the creator of the Mysteries in Colour ™ creative process, which became the basis of her unique art workbook (with no lines to colour within) and corporate and social workshops series.

The Mysteries In Colour™ process surfaces rich and diverse perspectives in any room through creativity and pareidolia (per-ˌī-ˈdō-lē-ə), a fun psychological phenomenon. Sharing perspectives creates a better understanding of each other, leading to more collaboration, better ideas, and fewer conflicts. The Mysteries In Colour™ is an imaginative, fun and non-judgemental way to see another’s point of view, which helps build empathy and a human connection.

Mazarine is presently in the process of rolling out the Mysteries in Colour ™ program for school districts  across Ontario for the summer of 2023. The aim of this program is to understand the value of a creative approach to SEL (Social Emotional Learning) for students.
