Still Your Mind

  • Rachael Simões

How do you draw your focus back to the present moment? Join us in the Faith, Hope and Fear gallery for timed still life drawing. See how much you can turn off from the world and centre your attention, and intention, to your pencil. I conceptualised and hosted a mindful still-life drawing activity for the Science Museum Gaming/NHS Anniversary Lates, 27/7/2023. I also played with graphic design and copywriting to create posters and other visual features on the night. With three options for tool recommendations depending on the visitor's current space of mind, I encouraged people to put a timer on their phone to help focus their attention for a dedicated period of time.
