Plant Gazing: Under Waxing Crescent Moon with artist Joseph Walsh

Tue 8 Jul 25
7 - 9pm. £25 per person. IMT Gallery, Unit 2/210 Cambridge Heath Road, London E2 9NQ As we approach July’s full moon, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to connect with plant allies and set personal intentions for the days ahead. In alchemy, the art of drawing plants holds a twofold significance. On one level it represents the material aspect of the alchemical process, of sunlight and water becoming stem, leaf and flower. On a deeper symbolic level, the depiction of plants embodies the concept of growth and transformation, informing the practitioner - an alchemical self. Immerse yourself in the IMT Gallery space, subtly infused with frankincense - woody, fresh and up-lifting. A curated selection of plants will be available for drawing, accompanied by prompts and guidance on the techniques of plant gazing and observation. In this two hour workshop we will explore the mysteries of plants through drawing, painting, and meditative observations, we will go beyond the confines of the ordinary. We'll take a moment to reconnect to our bodies and the living world through a serene Rose tea ceremony, grounding ourselves in the present moment. We will consider rose energy.
