From Sensitive Collage: Art and Mindfulness

Join us for this intuitive experience and allow yourself to slow down amidst internal and mundane chaos, look within and dive deep into your creative universe! **✨ Next workshop ✨** **Where?** Bardo Projektraum - Jessnerstraße 33, 10247 Berlin **When?** 14.08.2026 - from 18:30 to 20:30 **How much?** Suggested donation: 10€ / 15€ Secure your spot: https://www.eventbrite.de/e/sensitive-collage-experience-tickets-1993618470512?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true **Language:** English **Who can participate:** This experience is open to anyone over the age of 16 who is interested in exploring her own creativity and wants to immerse herself in the world of visual arts, art therapy, collage, meditation, mental health and self-knowledge. **Materials included.** **Only 10 spots!** **What to expect:** This experience, in addition to presenting the possibilities of the analogue collage technique, also disseminates an empirical method of creation, valuing the process of image construction, through the senses and self-knowledge. The dynamics of the Sensitive Collage project consist of creative exercises that induce the emergence of symbolic images, enabling psychic organisation through materialisation and opening up possibilities for these contents to be integrated into consciousness. **Objectives of the experience:** · To expand creative vision and intuition; · Cultivate presence; · To inspire creativity; · Practice mindfulness; · Promote mental health; · Materialise different feelings in a subjective way through collage. **Project creator:** Vanessa Neuber is a Brazilian visual artist, educator, illustrator and poet based in Berlin. She holds a degree in Design and a postgraduate qualification in Art History and Analytical Psychology, with a focus on Mythology, Tales and the Arts. In addition, Vanessa has deepened her knowledge of art therapy through the courses “Healing With The Arts” (University of Florida) and SoulCollage®, a method created by Seena B. Frost. Collage and poetry have always been fundamental pillars of her creative journey, serving as powerful tools for inspiration, and meditation enhances this creative process. Her projects have been presented at various exhibitions, fairs, workshops and courses across Latin America and Europe. https://www.vanessaneuber.com/en **Important information:** · Materials included. · This workshop is a safe space where mutual respect is essential. Any form of prejudice or discrimination will not be tolerated, ensuring a welcoming environment for everyone.

Printmaking with Cyanotype

Mon, Aug 10, 4:00 PM

From Berlin Art Workshops

4.4

Learn how to turn your drawings and photos into handprinted cyanotypes: deep blues, a spectrum of tones, and that unmistakable analog feel. What is this workshop about? Most people know cyanotype as "sun prints": a leaf on paper, leaving a pale silhouette. But once you know how to control the exposure, it becomes far more expressive. Working with shades of grey, a single print can hold up to 7 distinct tones, turning cyanotype into a beautiful way to reproduce your own art. Even from a digital image, the result comes out warm, nostalgic, and unmistakably hand-made. **Who is it for?** All levels. No digital skills required: the hand-drawn method needs nothing but your hands. **How does it work?** In this workshop you'll coat your own paper with cyanotype solution, prepare an illustration/design, expose it under UV light, and rinse it to reveal your prints. Everyone leaves with their own finished pieces. **How will you create your prints?** * By hand: drawing on tracing paper with colored pencils and crayons, or layering pieces of semi-transparent paper. * Digitally: preparing a grayscale file (Photoshop / Illustrator / Procreate), which we print onto tracing paper on the spot **What will you learn?** * How cyanotype works: its strengths and its limit * Choosing the right papers, coating them evenly with solution, and controlling the result * Preparing a hand-drawn negative on tracing paper * Preparing a digital file: the right grey values, how to set it up, and how to turn a photo into a cyanotype negative * Exposure under UV lamps, rinsing, and drying **What should you bring?** * Simple sketches or image ideas, monochromatic, with up to 7 tones * If you want to work digitally: your own laptop or iPad **What's provided?** * All materials are provided: solutions, papers, tracing papers, drawing materials, brushes, and UV lamps. * You take home your prints. * Ready-to-use cyanotype kits will also be available to purchase on the day. **What language is it in?** The workshop is held in English. **Where do I get my tickets?** You can get your tickets [here directly from Ron Nadel. ](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/ronnadel/2303158)
