Un-doing Workshops

Un-doing Workshops Creative group workshops and private sessions available in Cape Town Hi, I'm Emma, your Un-doing Facilitator.

My job is to hold the space during Un-doing Workshops and Private Sessions, leading you into and out of activities, and sometimes cleaning and setting up around you while you simply focus on playing, experimenting, and noticing. What you can expect from a workshop:
The workshops are made up of a variety of simple activities and art materials, which are each allocated a certain amount of time. Each workshop will follow a similar structure (although some of the activities/materials will change and each workshop experience is different overall). You will be encouraged to notice how you feel about different exercises and materials, but this is just for you (no right/wrong). We will experiment with our attachment to outcome and 'end result', but the only real requirement of you is to get a little curious during your time with the ideas and art materials presented. All materials are provided, just bring yourself and the payment (R250 pp for evening classes, R300 for Saturday classes, EFT option available). No guarantees can be made about what you will leave with, if anything ;)

All workshops are held at the lovely Montebello Design Centre in Newlands, Cape Town. More about Un-doing...
Un-doing was created to solve a few different problems:
- The stress and pressure around creating when aiming for 'perfect'/ 'right'/ 'good'/ 'done'/ 'enough'
- The amount of steps and decisions required to start and finish any creative 'project' (including purchase of materials and finding time)
- Knowing that play is important for our physical and mental health (no matter our age), but having no idea where to start as an adult
- Knowing that art/creativity once felt beneficial, but no longer finding attempts fun or relaxing

What I (Emma) am not:
I am not an art teacher and therefore won't be teaching you HOW to create (although we might sometimes experiment with creative techniques). I am not an art therapist either, however I will often use ideas that encourage introspection and mindfulness; creativity is a wonderful mental health tool and sometimes we need reminding of that. And lastly, I may not be the best public speaker... but I believe the Un-doing experience is worth a little discomfort! :)
