Organised by University of The Arts London (UAL)
Discover mindfulness through art and textiles. Learn creative techniques to stay present, reduce anxiety, and express yourself visually.
This creative workshop led by LCF student Kieran Jamieson focuses on reducing anxiety through mindfulness techniques.
Participants will be invited to create visual journals using art and textiles to stay present, explore emotional awareness, and reduce overthinking.Activities like "drawing the breath" and expressive mixed-media art will offer participants a creative toolkit to stay grounded.
The session will culminate in designing personalized cotton bandanas, serving as both a reminder of mindful moments and a wearable keepsake. Materials will be provided.
I am Kieran Jamieson, a third-year student here at London College of fashion. I am studying BA Hon’s Fashion Textiles: Print with a keen interest in Wellbeing and care through art and textiles, community, sustainability and social impact.
Content Note: This workshop may involve discussions around anxiety. We encourage all participants to approach these conversations with care, empathy, and understanding. You are welcome to engage at your own comfort level, whether by actively participating or simply listening.
Refreshments will be offered in the Foyer after the event, offering the chance to continue discussions and visit the Collective Care exhibition and panel talk at 6pm.
