Britain's What's On Event Guide
Carromancy Divination Workshop with Rose-Marie Luk
With the flickering glow of candlelight, we will convene to unlock ancient wisdom and the language of the spirit. This workshop invites you to explore Carromancy Divination, the timeless art of interpreting abstract forms from melted wax to access hidden messages by tapping into the subconscious, and to set personal intentions for the days ahead.
Held within IMT Gallery’s group exhibition, The House, featuring works that all, often through degrees of autobiography, speaks to some of the discordances of being at home: perhaps the anticipation of order amidst the everyday; or an expectation of comfort, often amidst insecurity or tension. In dialogue with the exhibition, carromancy invites you to attune to the subtle emotional landscapes of home.
Immerse yourself in the gallery space, subtly infused with aromatic lavender to relax the mind and calm the senses. A curated experience awaits: watch as lilac wax is poured into water to create abstract forms, engage in guided sketching to capture fleeting shapes, and join in meditative reflections that draw you closer to your intuitive self.
In this two-hour workshop led by interdisciplinary artist Rose-Marie Luk, you will:
- Discover the ancient origins of Carromancy, tracing its roots from Celtic druids to diverse indigenous traditions.
- Engage in a step-by-step creative process: pouring, observing, drawing, and interpreting the shifting forms of candle wax.
- Craft a unique talisman spell jar by combining your wax creation with foraged objects and healing crystals, imbuing it with your personal intentions for self-awareness and transformation.
- Participate in reflective meditations designed to harmonise your creative energies and deepen your connection to the universe.
A limited number of tickets are available free of charge for residents of Tower Hamlets. These places have been lovingly created with support from Tower Hamlets Council.
