Exploring the therapeutic benefits of blindfolded clay sculpting sessions in Berlin's workshops
In the heart of Kreuzberg, at Falckensteinstr. 46, Thuli Wolf invites you to embark on a unique artistic journey. This November and December, she is hosting two workshops on the 24th of November and the 13th of December, from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM.
Thuli, a trained physician and art therapist, understands the transformative power of art, especially during challenging times. She discovered this firsthand during a personal crisis, and now she aims to share this experience with others.
Her workshops are designed to provide a sense of liberation and immersion in one's work. The most intriguing aspect? You'll be sculpting blindfolded. This unconventional approach eliminates the temptation to judge and criticize, making you fully dependent on your hands to guide you.
Blindfolded clay sculpting offers numerous psychological benefits. It slows down your pace, reconnects you with the present moment, and promotes sensory awareness by relying on touch instead of sight. Physically, it enhances your tactile sensory experience and fine motor skills through heightened manual exploration. This practice reduces distractions and encourages mindfulness and creativity in a unique way.
Participating in these workshops, you'll create pottery without being able to see what you're making. Towards the end of the workshops, you'll be invited to discuss your blind sculpting experience and thoughts, fostering a sense of community and shared understanding.
Working with clay is also said to release happiness hormones, promoting relaxation. So, not only will you be creating art, but you'll also be taking care of your mental and physical well-being.
The cost of the workshop is €60, and no previous experience or materials are required to participate. If you're interested, simply sign up on thuliwolf.com.
