Re-imagining Compulsive Skin Picking: Art for Recovery | Liz Atkin | TEDxRoyalCentralSchool
Liz Atkin has a compulsive skin picking disorder. She tells her story, and encourages the world to see art as a tool for recovery. Liz Atkin is an internationally acclaimed visual artist and advocate based in London. Compulsive Skin Picking dominated her life for more than 20 years, but art has become her greatest tool for recovery. Liz reimagines the body-focused repetitive behaviour of skin picking into photographic artworks, charcoal drawings and performances. Her work has been exhibited in the UK, Australia, Singapore, USA and Japan. She has given public talks for TEDx Youth, Wellcome Collection, Southbank Centre, and at a range of UK and international conferences and health events. She has featured on BBC Breakfast, BBC Woman's Hour, BBC World Service and BBC Radio London, Aljazeera TV, the INewspaper and BBC Arabic.
