Objetives
1
To offer those who are at the beginning of their professional career or who are currently considering their artistic vocation, the experience of those who have already travelled part of the way.
2
To present approaches based on relationality and in-depth dialogue.
3
To provide help in obtaining resources and tools to live inspiration in depth, and to facilitate the materialisation of the creative process.
You will have the opportunity to present your own work, to participate in experimentation and analysis workshops, as well as in educational talks on creation as a spiritual experience, the social function of art, the power of communion, or the potential of madness.
Discover the power of communion
In the artistic field, communion refers to the profound connection and dialogue established between the artist, the work and the viewer. The relational bond allows artistic creation to transcend its materiality so that it becomes a shared and meaningful experience.
This communion implies an empathic interaction in which the viewer, through serene contemplation, internalises the work by integrating it into his or her own life experience. The same process takes place between the creator and the work of art during its creation. This practice transforms aesthetic perception into an experience that enriches the personal and collective understanding of art.
