Rewired: A Creative Exploration of Change, Resilience, and Connection
A collection of art, story, and lived experience—inviting you to see adversity through a new lens.
Rewired is more than a book. It’s a reflection of what happens when life changes everything—and you choose to rebuild anyway. Through a blend of memoir, artwork, and metaphor, Sabrina Curtis shares her personal journey of brain injury, identity loss, and creative rebirth, offering readers a deeply human perspective on resilience, healing, and transformation.
(The Story Behind Rewired)
From Brain Injury to Creative Awakening
After multiple traumatic brain injuries over two decades, Sabrina’s life shifted in ways she never could have planned. Once an engineer, she found herself navigating a new reality—one shaped by neurocognitive challenges and uncertainty. Then, unexpectedly, art entered her life.
What began as a single brushstroke became a lifeline.
Rewired was born from this transformation—a way to process, express, and reconnect with both self and others through creativity.
