The Journey of a New York Artist Creating Change
Through Presence and Creativity
n the electric pulse of New York’s
punk and new wave scene, amid
the raw energy of rebellion and
artistic ferment, one young woman
found herself drawn not just to the
music, but to something deeper—art,
philosophy, and cultures far beyond her
familiar world. This was where Agni Zotis
first learned that true revolution begins
within.
Today, as an internationally recognized
artist and trauma-informed wellness
leader, Agni has spent over twenty years
transforming lives through what she calls
the ultimate masterpiece: life itself. Her
journey from the underground music
scene to becoming a globally recognized
artist and practitioner of Mindfulness,
Arts, and Yoga reveals how authentic
creativity can become the most powerful
force for change.
When Art Becomes Living Medicine
For Agni, art transcends the boundaries
of canvas and gallery walls. Each piece
she creates uses pigments made from
elemental materials—stones, gold, and
silver—that shift and shimmer with light,
reflecting the deeper transformations
she channels through her work. Her
signature piece, I Am That I Am, stands
as a testament to the divine spark within
us all, reminding viewers that intention
and attention shape our reality.
