A workshop exploring the idea of shapeshifting and the different characters within us, through storytelling and creative response in the form of collage.
A mythic, creative ritual workshop exploring the many selves we carry within us.
Guided by storytelling, meditation and intuitive collage, this workshop invites you into a gentle, dream like space where inner characters, creatures and symbols can emerge through story, image and embodied making.
Together, we work with the ancient idea of shapeshifting: the capacity within us to adapt, transform, survive and become something else when life calls for it.
No artistic experience is needed.
This is not about “making good art”…it is about listening.
The workshop unfolds as a carefully held arc:
Opening the Space
We begin by creating a sacred, confidential container. The space is cleansed and blessed before arrival and we open together with song, intention and clear agreements.
Mythic Storytelling
Jade shares the Story of Taliesin, a shapeshifting story, inviting you to enter it not as a listener, but as a dreamer.
Guided Meditation
Adri leads you into a soft, altered state…a half-dream, where you can release pressure, receive an image, symbol, or feeling and gather the “seed” for your creation.
Intuitive Collage Creation
From this dream-space, you move into collage. You’ll be gently guided in how to choose images intuitively, work with backgrounds and symbols, and let your hands lead without overthinking.
There are no right choices.
Only responsive ones.
Rest & Reflection
We pause, then gather in a circle around a central altar to sit with what has emerged. Sharing is optional. Silence is honoured.
Integration & Closing
We explore how to continue the conversation with your collage after the workshop, and we close the space with gratitude, grounding and a gentle release of the circle.
This workshop is for you if…
• You’re curious about myth, story, dreams and symbolism
• You want to explore different parts of yourself in a creative, non-verbal way
• You feel drawn to ritual, art-making, or intuitive processes
• You’re in a moment of change, transition, or questioning
• You want a soulful, held experience rather than a purely “technical” art class
By the way...
You don’t need to be an artist.
You don’t need to share anything you don’t want to.
You only need a willingness to listen inwardly.
