ARTIST LAXMI HUSSAIN BECOMES CREATE PATRON
Artist Laxmi Hussain has joined the multi-award-winning creative arts charity Create as a Patron. Create’s Patrons have a passion for creativity and its power to enhance lives, and lend their voice to support the charity in a variety of ways.
Laxmi Hussain is a London-based artist whose art blends elegance and precision, drawing inspiration from the human form, motherhood, and nature’s ever-changing beauty. Her intricately composed works transcend traditional boundaries, inviting viewers to engage with her art through deliberately incomplete elements. Blue, an ever-present hue in Laxmi’s palette, carries a deeply personal resonance. It stands as a tribute to her mother and mirrors her poignant journey of self-discovery and creative exploration.
Laxmi has left her artistic footprint amongst some of the most prestigious brands and organisations, including Tate, Soho House, Henry Moore Studios, Vogue – Philippines, US & UK, Penguin Books and H&M Home. Her creative expertise ripples into the worlds of fashion, design, and literary expression.
In her role as Patron, Laxmi will be supporting Create’s mission of empowering lives, reducing isolation and enhancing wellbeing through the creative arts.
Speaking about her decision to become a Create Patron, Laxmi said:
“I was instantly drawn to Create when I first met its Founding CEO, Nicky Goulder and became aware of the important work the charity does in making art accessible to many who really need it.“
I believe that as humans we have a fundamental desire to create. Making art is such an empowering experience.

“As an artist it has helped me through so many aspects of my life, joyous and sad, and I have always felt that the power of doing so should be shared. This is what Create does, giving those who really need it an opportunity to express themselves, build community and grow. I’m truly honoured to join Create as one of its Patrons, to support the charity in sharing all the ways the arts can positively impact so many people.”
Create’s Founding CEO Nicky Goulder MBE said:
“We are honoured to have Laxmi Hussain become one of Create’s Patrons. Since I first met her, it was clear that we share the same passion for the transformative power of the creative arts and their ability to improve the lives of society’s most marginalised people. Create believes that access to creativity is a fundamental right, not a privilege. Expressing yourself creatively is a core part of human wellbeing – people need to create. We look forward to working closely with Laxmi to continue to expand Create’s mission of bringing the creative arts to those who need them most.”
Create Patrons support the charity in many ways: by inspiring participants through workshops and performances; assisting with fundraising activities; raising the charity’s profile through blogs and media interviews; and lending their time and expertise to other initiatives.
