Heiter sessions are monthly online “heiter experiences” that give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in an creative and/or calming activity and thus, add more joy to your daily life. In June we will meet for an “Intuitive Art Making” (zoom) workshop with artist Hira S Ahmed
The 60min session takes place on Tuesday, the 7th of June at 1pm BST | 2pm CET. Please note that you will have to bring along equipment (see below). You will receive an email with the relevant zoom link prior to the session.
What Hira says about her workshop:
“This workshop is all about having a meditative experience of being in conversation with yourself and your emotions through art. Through mixed media art, I encourage you to play and discover the childlike wonder once again in your life.”
''You either walk inside your story and own it, or you stand outside your story and hustle for your worthiness.'' - Brene Brown
The aim of the workshop is to inspire you to hold space for you, your story and lived experiences in a safe space without any judgement in the company of other like-minded creative humans.
We will begin with a 15-min long meditation during which Hira will share visualisation prompts. Afterwards we'll begin with our mixed media creations. The session will include some basic prompts to help you overcome the fear of blank canvas and to start exploring the mixed media medium in an intuitive way. You will have a unique piece of abstract art towards the end of the workshop. At the end of the workshop, we will take 15 mins to share what we have made, what we were thinking about, what it represents for us and how it feels to express those thoughts and emotions.
Play. Connect. Experience. Rejoice.
What to bring along:
any art materials that you have lying around you as we are making a Mixed Media abstract piece of art. That could be acrylics, watercolours, graphite pencils, coloured pencils, markers etc.
canvas or a piece of paper (preferably 300 gsm) if you are planning to use acrylics or watercolours
Who is the session for?
This experience is designed for everyone. You don’t need to know anything about meditation or art to be a part of this experience. You'll also enjoy the workshop if you are a seasoned artist. This could be your space to let go of control and explore something new that you haven't tried in a while. Come as you are and explore your creative expression through guided meditation and intuitive art.
There will also be a replay available for everyone (including those of you who cannot make it live).
Ticket price: €19
