Event description

Draw Plants Together Presents: Unfurl - Weekly Plant Focussed Making Sessions

UNFURL

Join Craig from Draw Plants Together for ‘UNFURL’ – the same weekly plant-focused, process-led making sessions but with a new format.

Sessions will start with 30 minutes of ’sensory drawing’ led by Craig – a simple noticing practice that suspends critical thinking, invites reflection, relaxation, and allows for the material and relational qualities of drawing to be felt.

Following this gentle start, there will be some open time and space to follow the thread of your own creative interests from week to week, in conversation with plants and materials, and in the company of others attending the sessions.


Basic drawing materials provided.

Feel free to bring your own media for the second part of the session – clay, words, fabric, dyes, ... anything you like.

Craig will bring plants each week, with the possibility of occasional outings to the nearby Merri Merri Creek.

Don’t worry about having something to work on – the idea of these sessions is to allow emergent process to lead the way :)
