Nova Is Lost is a creative lab exploring artistic ways to seek out and reveal inner strength when you need it most. With restorative worlds, new tech, and creativity, we fuel your inner fire.
THE EXPERIENCE
Whatever you’re wrestling with, there’s a force within you to embrace any struggle without a fight. You only have to find it, accept it, and trust it’s always there.
Nova Is Lost is creating an immersive experience so you can step out of the world for a short while to rekindle what you already know. Away from all distractions, you’ll tread lightly through a tactile, physical space on a deeply personal journey to reveal what’s hidden, obscured, faded, put upon, or currently out of reach. Whether it’s light relief you need or greater solace, or you feel somehow adrift, come home to yourself here with a uniquely presented vision of hope, resilience and light.
We’re building on the ideas before we can build out the space. Follow along!

THE WELLNESS SERIES
We’ re all a bit broken.
Our founder, Natalie, takes a look at the growing wave of creative technologists merging art with science to stimulate our senses, help us reconnect with ourselves and each other, and bring joy, escapism, and grounding for improved physical and emotional wellbeing.
“You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honourably. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give.”
