Empowering Voices: Krystle Yang’s Artistic Journey

I have been doing workshops, art, sewing and most importantly advocating for those voices that have not been heard. I have been an artist at Redline Contemporary Art Center for a long time. The community studio has been a host to so many different organizations and the clientele. Krystle Jasmin Yang was one of them.

Krystle is creating jewelry and has been coming to this safe, resource based, day shelter ever since I met her at Redline years ago. I started doing workshops at The Gathering Place a few years later and she attended my workshop. I wanted to share her story from her voice.

I started making earrings because I have always loved working with my hands. I always put love in my handy work. It gives me a chance to put my creativity in the earrings I make. I enjoy it so much and I get so many compliments on my work.

I was on the streets for over 10 years and I have dealt with a lot of mental, emotional, verbal and unfortunately sexual abuse. I have been accused of doing this most horrible things to people that I cared about.

Now Krystle is creating jewelry and selling it on TikTok. Here is her handle @Krystleyang7295 Follow her, support her, and/or buy her jewelry. Thank you for taking the time to read her story.

I am an older woman inspired to not give up due to life struggles and to strive in everything I do to achieve my goals. I work from home with creating different art pieces. Helping the homeless community in Denver is important to me as well. I like being creative and posting on my blogging about experiences, new information, and lessons learned. I am motivated to put information on the web hoping it will help others. I have two beautiful girls that are grown now and I hope they will be the women I know that is within them. I love technology and the outdoors. I am improving my health to live as long as possible. Life is worth living and living to the fullest.
