Purpose of retreat: to see and feel the visual poetry of earth- in solitude, in silence and then to find your own expressions with lines, colours, textures, forms and designs. This will be the nature of the three day retreat. It is a process to sensitize and become aware of various forms and their character.
The process of Art enhances the sense of observation and ‘ways of seeing’, apart from making oneself aware of one’s relationship to the world at large. It nurtures one to become sensitive to their own relationship and responses to the environment. The programme is set upon a self exploratory journey of aesthetics and beauty and ways of expression.
Program facilitator: Ms. Nalini Jayaram. Nalini is a freelance artist who is exploring Art's relation to life and nature .She is also interested in traditional and rural crafts and works with artisans. Periodically she travels to the villages in Kanyakumari and helps an NGO which promotes revival of Palmyra Craft. She is deeply interested in music, poetry, photography and an ardent nature lover! As an art educator, she has been holding credit course in Art appreciation for college student for students and art classes for students with learning disabilities.
She can be contacted at this number: 9448375405 |
