How does it work?
The invitation to work with the Expressive Arts is to immerse oneself in the CREATIVE PROCESS, through artistic experiences that require LOW TECHNIQUE and HIGH SENSITIVITY.
The process is more important than the result.
There is no interpretation, criticism or judgment of what has been created.
There are no possible mistakes.
In this work, the different artistic languages are connected. The expression of one artistic discipline stimulates and nourishes the other discipline. The arts become "intertwined" and allow the creative experience to deepen.
For example, music liberates movement. Movement awakens painting. Writing allows reflection and understanding of messages.
Finally, sharing and witnessing other processes, with full presence and empathy, brings the gift of being seen and heard.
