Overview

The house is a timeless metaphor for self, memory, belonging, and transformation. This symbol carries deep emotional resonance across cultures and many personal experiences. In this immersive painting workshop, we will invite images of the house through guided imagination that might reveal aspects of our inner lives to actively elaborate on those images as a form of self-exploration. Participants will discover new inner spaces by creating visual representations of different stages of their inner house over the duration of the classes. No artistic experience is required.
