Destenie Glen is a visionary artist-intuitive. She explores and expresses the deeper layers of the psyche through evocative, emotionally truthful work. Her voice blends the philosophical and emotional, the mythic and the modern.
I’m a multidisciplinary artist exploring the depths of identity and transformation through words, symbols, and emotionally resonant imagery.
My work is rooted in the belief that creativity is not a luxury, but a sacred, essential force that connects us to our true selves. To me, mental health and creative authenticity are deeply linked. Suppressing one stifles the other. Drawing inspiration from the Gothic, the mythic, the occult, and the shadow, I create work that speaks to the inner life: the parts we hide, the truths we fear, the beauty that lives inside darkness.
I’m particularly drawn to the archetype of the outcast—those who are othered, yet carry wisdom the world needs. Through writing, visual expression, and introspective storytelling, I aim to mirror what others feel but cannot yet name.
I’m only just embarking on my artist’s journey, learning how to shape the inner into the visible. I have lived the descent into shadow and now rise not with answers for myself nor the collective, but with poetry and process.
