18 - 25 August 2023: BlissDance Retreat
Bliss is not simply a state of happiness; rather it is the capacity to remain fully embodied and consciously present.
‘Imagination is more important than knowledge’ - Einstein
All of us have creativity inscribed in our DNA, and experience pure joy when we make things. We mirror the world and the world mirrors us.
• Do you find you do not have enough time and opportunity to express yourself creatively?
• You are creative but not a practicing artist?
• You value your imagination and want to give it wings?
• You have an enquiring mind and love exploring stimulating ideas?
Then join Fran Saunders for a workshop to spark your imagination. Using mixed media and a variety of objects and materials, we will create artworks that are inspired by philosophical concepts that have brought us to where we are now, as well our role in imagining the future
Bring a notebook, a sketchbook, a gold felt tip pen and a set of coloured kokis. We supply additional materials and an ideal space to incubate new dreamings.
