During this workshop, we will see terms like Self-exploration and self-expression.

Creating a self-portrait allows individuals to explore their own identities, emotions, and experiences. It provides a means to express thoughts, feelings, and personal narratives visually.

Also, we will explore Self-acceptance and self-esteem: Engaging in self-portraiture can enhance self-acceptance and boost self-esteem. Through the process, individuals can develop a more compassionate and accepting attitude toward themselves.

Through the materials, we will see the power of the projections, the creations, and using narrative and storytelling.

Self-portraits can serve as visual narratives, allowing individuals to tell their personal stories or reflect on significant life events. They can communicate experiences and memories that might be challenging to express in words alone.

This 2 h workshop will give participants a relaxed time creating and discovering themselves.

Participants will receive our support and from the Gestalt Art therapy approach.
