Freyja created a 6 person pod with Ebony Easily for the children of North Tulsa to use as an Art Therapy pod. The Biophilic soft space is customizable, the children can choose the colours, sights and smells they want, this aims to create a sense of agency. The pod is an open environment to be filled with the imagination. The pod features integrated projectors which will be filled with content created with and by the students, AV specifying and programming by James Froment.

The initiative is a long-term plan that will develop alternative behavioral response solutions for at-risk elementary students. reduce the suspension rate for Black public school students, increase fresh food and physical wellness options for low income north Tulsans, and create awareness around the overall mental and physical health benefits when people engage in the process of creative expression.

The initiative aims to help remove barriers associated with families economic status, background, and proximity to solution-based resources to improve equitable outcomes for north Tulsa families through the arts.

The art therapy pod creates a safe space for licensed mental health care professionals and educators to provide holistic services to community members

“As a prior north Tulsa Public School art student I’m honored to be instrumental in providing tangible tools to proactively address the holistic health of families in our community in unconventional solution methods rooted in arts engagement. Freyja is a brilliant life artist and it was a privilege to collaborate to develop this one of a kind masterpiece. I believe art is directly linked to a human's wellness and the economic vitality of a city, so I look forward to the positive impact of this installation.”
