Workshop overview

What does your inner world look like?
If your thoughts were a room, would they have high ceilings and open windows, or a winding staircase leading to a hidden door? Mapping the Mind is a reflective, guided art workshop that invites you to visualise your internal landscape through the lens of "inner architecture."
In this session, we go beyond traditional portraiture or landscapes to explore the spaces we inhabit within ourselves. Using light, shadow, and structure, you will create a visual map of your current emotional state and personal journey.
Join us!

The Journey

We blend mindfulness with mixed-media artistry to help you build your "inner architecture" Begin with a gentle meditation to ground your awareness and settle into the space.
Use guided writing prompts to translate abstract feelings into physical metaphors (doors, windows, maps, or staircases). Bring your vision to life through a rich variety of mixed media, including drawing, painting, and collage.

Who Is This For?

This workshop is a sanctuary for anyone looking to deepen their emotional awareness through a calm, supportive, and creative outlet.
No "Art Skills" Required: This is about self-expression, not technical perfection.
