Workshop- Falling Apart and Letting Go

In a challenging world where we are expected to keep it all together and live, laugh, love, while crisis becomes our day to day we need to unravel and for it to be alright. Surrounded by breakdown we are not allowed to breakdown...

Performance artist Catherine Hoffmann will lead participants on a creative journey using journalling, drawing, movement and voice to investigate how to use all our moments of collapse, not coping, our loss of control, to transform not only how we feel but to create works of resonance and beauty.

By sharing Catherine’s own experiences of breaking down and using this as material for her latest show – Wormhole of our Formation – she will enable others to embrace their own hidden supply of rich creativity.
