About this Event
Are you longing for a sensory experience that awakens your connection between the natural world and your inner self?
Join us for a full-day immersive workshop — From Earth to Expression — a unique journey into The Moving Colours Between Light and Darkness, where Eastern and Western wisdom meet.
Through Goethean Colour Theory and the Tao Te Ching’s Yin-Yang philosophy, you’ll explore how colour, food, and mindfulness intertwine to nurture creativity, balance, and inner awareness.
Guided by an accomplished artist and a Japanese food specialist, you’ll learn to see, taste, and express colours in a way you’ve never experienced before.
What You’ll Experience
Phase 1: Observation – The Balance of Yin and Yang
We begin by observing natural, plant-based food materials. Through guided sensory practices, you’ll explore the dynamic balance between light and darkness — discovering how Yin and Yang express themselves through colour, form, and taste.
You’ll learn to:
- Perceive subtle colour nuances and their emotional resonance
- Cultivate curiosity and sensitivity through mindful observation
- Deepen your understanding of the world’s living forces
Phase 2: Expression – Abstract Forms and Evocative Colour
Awakened by observation, your perception becomes the palette for creation. You’ll translate the essence of food and colour into abstract artwork that captures emotion and movement — allowing your inner world to flow freely through colour and form.
Phase 3: Mindful Nourishment – A Taste of Simplicity
The day concludes with a serene Nourishment Session, prepared with care and authenticity.
Food sharing:
- Japanese style Rice Balls (Onigiri)
- Pickle
- Japanese Tea
All ingredients are additive-free and freshly polished, offering a genuine taste of purity and simplicity — the perfect complement to your mindful exploration.

About Us
Look-in is a creative initiative that bridges art, nourishment, and mindful living. Through workshops and cross-cultural collaborations, we explore how color, form, and taste can open pathways to deeper self-awareness and harmony with nature.
Our journey has taken us from Hong Kong to Richmond in the UK, and across cities in China — each experience enriching our understanding of the shared language between art and food.
Now, in Brighton, a city known for its vibrant, inclusive, and artistically diverse culture, we are delighted to share this evolving exploration. From Earth to Expression continues our mission to inspire connection, creativity, and mindful transformation through the living dialogue of East and West.
