We are Arteri
We are a design collective harnessing creativity to inspire connection and drive action, to co-create a future where people and planet thrive
Hello, I’m Heather
I’ve realised there’s only so much I can do on my own.
I’m growing Arteri to be a design collective.
Dedicated to using creativity in service to a possible, more regenerative future.
We need stories of hope and regeneration that inspire the cultivation of connection and community, that challenge the narratives of our broken systems, and bring everyone along with us on the journey.
The more streams that feed into a river artery, the stronger it gets.
It’s time to move from the ME to the WE.
Time to move from SILOS into SYSTEMIC THINKING.
Together, we rise like water, we grow in power.
Co-creating the future.
I am prototyping a creative practice that embraces nature’s rhythms, cycles and principles.
Deepening my inquiry through communities of practice, including Becoming Crew, Bio-leadership Fellowship, Earthed and through conversations with friends and mentors.
Unlearning lots along the way.
Connection to our inner and outer nature sits at the heart of my new creative studio, arteri.
We believe power of creativity to cultivate connection - to ourselves, each other, and nature - to shape a future where all can thrive.
We have become disconnected.
From ourselves, to each other, and to nature.
I felt it too, when I had burnout 6 years ago. I lost my sense of self and creative spark.
But I turned back to nature to fill my creative cup back up. Slowing down to tune into nature’s wisdom, I found my flow again.
Since then, I’ve been exploring how to create the conditions for my creativity to flourish. After all, we ARE nature, but our culture’s story of separation has disconnected us from it.

Our Approach
We embrace nature’s rhythms and principles to create the conditions for connection to deepen, creativity to flow, and collaboration to flourish.
We explore new ways of being and new ways of working with clients, coworkers and collaborators.
This is our time, to lead with our hearts, and take action.
Because we need nature, and nature needs us.
