Creative process facilitation/ artistic coaching
This is for all of you who are busy with creative projects and find yourself stuck, alone or in need for a supportive mentor for your process. We can put different words to describe the process that is not flowing – burnout, writer’s block, uninspired, procrastinating, bored, numb, dry.
This is where I step in. I can be your companion for the journey that is your (creative) process.
In a creation process, much like in life, sometimes we need support, a new perspective, to slow down, to change gear, to breathe. The goal of creative coaching sessions is to explore the situation you are in and what is needed in the here-and-now.
Workshops
Exploring contact through identities
This workshop came out of the work we did together with Mili Marjanović and Yulia Bondar in 2023.
We noticed an urgent need between us and in our society to practice making contact through differences. It started as an intimate exploration among friends and peers and developed into a workshop, because we wanted to share this process with as many people as possible.
Some questions that we wanted to explore were:
How can I stay in a dialogue when we disagree? Or have seemingly opposing stances?
When is dialogue not possible?
How does the environment and context I am in influence my own identity?
What happens when I hear you and you hear me?
We also co-authored a paper on which we built our workshops. You can find it in the British Gestalt Journal:
