D'ART ET DE SEVE

Through my structure D'Art et de Sève, accompanied by the employment cooperative l'Ouvre-Boîtes 44, I offer several activities in the fields of art and well-being. I organize immersive group workshops in nature around the discovery of plants (botany and benefits of plants) by combining art therapy activities that allow to connect to oneself, to release one's creativity and emotions... and of course to have fun (writing, intuitive dance, drawing, photography, singing...) in a spirit of collective sharing. From spring 2022, natural handmade products will be offered for sale (initially gourmet ranges of syrups, jams and caramels) made from edible plants/flowers. I also create vibrant acrylic paintings and intuitive watercolor drawings as well as other artistic compositions. I explore nature, dreams/unconscious, memories and the sacred. For the moment I offer two formats for immersive workshops: - The immersion "Belle Verte", discovery of plants and their benefits Duration: 2h (Saturday from 10am to 12pm), 8 places available, from 12 years old An immersion in the countryside with the plants that grow on our paths, our woods ... participants will discover, throughout this guided walk that many of them conceal many benefits for the body and mind, we will learn to recognize them. We will approach the so-called common plants that often border our paths (dandelion, plantain, nettle...) as well as other more unusual species. They will reveal some of their secrets. Do not hesitate to bring a small notebook to accompany you! I will also propose a meditation with the trees, a little game around the photography as well as the tasting of an herbal tea or home-made syrup made with plants at the end of the session. - The creative workshop "Connection to oneself and to the living": Duration: 4 hours (Saturday from 1:30 to 5:30 pm), 8 places available, from 12 years old I propose a course around the recognition of plants and their virtues as well as sensory activities and Art-Therapy in a garden (Centre des Grands-Chênes in Guémené Penfao) or a wooded area (Porcé or the Prazillon wood in Saint-Nazaire) These are both powerful and gentle therapeutic tools that allow you to get to know yourself better, to understand yourself, to communicate with your body, your mind and your emotions. No technique is required, except the desire to take time for oneself, to explore and to have fun. And when we connect with ourselves... we connect with others! A meditation will begin the session and participants will be guided to let their feelings, creative potential, intuition and many other aspects express themselves through writing, drawing, dancing and intuitive singing exercises... in an atmosphere of sharing and caring. A tasting of a product and drink made from edible plants will be offered at the end of the workshop.
