BIOGRAPHY

Tuesdae Collopy is a multidisciplinary artist whose creative roots lie in poetry and spoken word. Over the years, her artistic expression has grown to include illustration, mixed media collage, charcoal, watercolor, and most recently, photography. Raised with a strong belief in the power of art as both a personal outlet and a community-building tool, Tuesdae creates with a purpose: to spark dialogue, evoke emotion, and help others connect more deeply with themselves and one another.

Tuesdae draws inspiration from the everyday — moments of struggle and joy, city blocks and rural landscapes, and the complex intersection of identity and lived experience. Her recent photographic work explores the contrasts and connections between urban and rural life, highlighting the beauty in simplicity and overlooked details.

For Tuesdae, art is both catharsis and resistance. It is a space to breathe, to process, and to heal. She sees art not as a luxury, but a necessity — an essential tool for survival and self-discovery. As someone who has faced economic and social barriers to creative work, she also understands how difficult it can be to sustain an artistic practice. This fuels her commitment to ensuring that art remains accessible to all and rooted in community.

When not writing or creating, Tuesdae is actively seeking ways to collaborate with other artists, especially those whose voices are often pushed to the margins. Her work is honest, vulnerable, and deeply resonant — a reflection of her lived truth and a call to others to find strength in their own stories.
