Meets Friday, 6:30-9 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.Suminagashi is an artistic expression that invites participants into the contemplative practice of Japanese paper marbling or “ink floating,” an accessible art form with roots as early as the 12th century. Through breath, brush, ink and water, you will create one-of-a-kind monoprints that mirror the truth of the present moment and open pathways to deeper self-awareness and connection with the natural world. The dynamic dance of ink on water provides a peaceful, wonder-filled means to honor the sacredness of each person and nurture collective wholeness. Guided by an introduction to the history and practice of suminagashi, you’ll explore meditative and creative prompts that awaken intuition, curiosity and creative possibility. You’ll leave not only with beautiful, unique creations but with a meaningful practice you can carry into daily life, because ink inevitably spills into life. No artistic experience is needed.
