As part of Mental Health Awareness Week, Photo & Graphic Artist, Anita Duggal, will be hosting a gentle slow‑looking session in the Parlour. It’s an opportunity to pause, breathe, and connect with art in a more mindful way.
What to expect? (This is a guide depending on how many visitors at one time.)
1-3pm – Drop in session
- Slow art looking at one piece of art for 5 – 10 minutes.
- How does the art make you feel?
- Notice other things, e.g. colour, composition, texture, or anything else.
- Write or draw your experience, and express yourself fully, there is no right or wrong answer.
3-4pm – Discussion
Group discussion or talk to someone about the experience, notice how you feel, consider doing it again, slowly looking at another art piece.
Even if you are not free to join us on Sunday, have a go look at art slowly, intently, and connect. What do you see, and how do you feel? Enjoy the process!
