Plant Gazing: Under Vine Moon Workshop with Joseph Walsh
Connect with Earth's plant allies through drawing, painting and tea ceremony…
As we approach September’s Waning Crescent Moon, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to connect with plant allies and set personal intentions for the month ahead.
Immerse yourself in the IMT Gallery space, subtly infused with Yarrow and Rosemary, earthy and clearing. A curated selection of plants will be available for drawing, accompanied by prompts and guidance on the techniques of plant gazing and observation.
In this two hour workshop we will explore the mysteries of plants through drawing, painting, and meditative observations, we will go beyond the confines of the ordinary.
Take a moment to reconnect to our bodies and the living world through a serene tea ceremony, grounding ourselves in the present moment. We will select from the hedgerow with hawthorn, rosehip or hops. We will also consider the hedgerow as thicket, stopover and shelter for beings.
About Joseph Walsh
Joseph Walsh, an artist rooted in forging human-nature connections through his work with plants. Using drawing, painting and film to actualise a co-existing with nature. He studied Fine Art at Goldsmiths University, and recently delivered the course Floral Time: How Artists Describe Plants at the Berlin Art Institute, workshops at Beaconsfield Gallery and No Show Space, as well as sharing insights with art students at Goldsmiths and Reading University.
Below we offer you a glimpse of what to expect from Joseph’s workshop, as told by previous participants:
“The workshop was well structured, and thus we were able to connect with the plant on a deeper level. Joe is a meticulous facilitator. Thank you.”
“A very naturally held space offering freedom to be intuitive, and be yourself. The time flowed perfectly. An exploration and very close look into the oneness, mirroring thoughts within the group. What a full whole, rich experience with the plants, yourself and each other.”
