Sparking Creativity Through Sensory and Intuitive Practice

This workshop will explore how a multi-sensory approach and intuitive way of working with monoprint can spark your creativity and confidence in being explorative and playful. In this session, you will engage with non-visual senses such as smell, and use natural or found materials to create intuitive monoprints.

About the workshop facilitator

An illustrator from Tokyo, currently based in London. I draw inspiration from nature and the small moments of daily life. A central part of my practice is enjoying the unexpected in analogue processes and embracing imperfection, using ink, watercolour, collage, and monoprint as a rebellion to the extreme pressure and beauty standards I grew up with.
