About this activity
A 1h30 workshop where you will be invited to learn about the drawing technique of blind contour drawing. With your eyes closed, artist Anne Isabelle Leonard will invite you to revisit the lines of your memories, of moments passed with lost loved ones. The drawing exercise here acts only a pretext to spend a moment with the deceased.
The use of drawing transforms this difficult exercise into a moment of connection, to oneself and to others, where laughter and tears are welcome. This workshop hopes to provide a space for conversation, sharing and acceptance of the vulnerability of loss.
All levels and abilities are welcomed, no need for past drawing experience.
