Embodied Listening – Plants, Body & Form

In the organizer's words:

In this somatic-artistic workshop, you will explore plants as living counterparts - through perception, resonance and body-oriented encounters. The focus is on training subtle body sensations and the ability to sense and differentiate subtle qualities. What do the shape, form and essence of the plant say and how do you resonate with it?

The somatic exploration forms the basis for the subsequent creative process: intuitive design can take place through collages, small installations with natural materials or experimentally by mortaring and painting with plant juices and translating the previously experienced qualities into a visible expression.

The approach is inspired by nature-based art therapy and understands design as embodied experience and exploration.

What you can expect:
- Training of your body awareness and somatic sensitization as well as fine sensory differentiation
- Experimental exploration of qualities in relation to plants
- Perception of interactions between body, plant and environment
- Intuitive, creative design as a form of integration
- Space for personal experience, without pressure to perform or interpret

For whom:
For people with an interest in artistic-creative design, somatic practice and experimental approaches to nature. No previous artistic knowledge is required - the focus is on openness to process and perception.

On site: material, tea & snacks are available
