Workshops

The Spiritual Studio Immersion

A four-session workshop that offers a place for guided creative quests, a place to refine and redefine inspiration.

Gently working through different release techniques of creative practices, this process is aimed to host you in a poetic space where a new gaze on existence and inner sources are touched and made possible.

These four sessions trace a path of self-exploration through the realm of the creative spirit, where we offer a place for guided creative quests, a place to refine and redefine inspiration.

A space to sow seeds within.
A space of germination.

The Process

Throughout four sessions of 2.5 hours each, you will move through a variety of releasing exercises. Each session is built upon the one before and includes:

• — Guided rapid drawing — encouraging 'mistakes' and the wobbliest line you can ever produce.
• — Body movement session — led by dancer and choreographer Mor Mendel, based in New York.
• — Guided meditation — simple stillness to encourage self-connection.
• — Stream of consciousness writing — a releasing mechanism of authenticity and inner depth.
• — Texts, poetry and videos — drawing inspiration from wise past teachers, poets, musicians, Buddhist monks, and more.

The sessions foster both stillness and rapid, unfiltered expression, encouraging both a quiet, receptive pause and a fast, instinctive release. This rhythm will be maintained throughout the workshop period through short exercises, inviting you to explore and deepen your exploration also between sessions.

No experience needed. Just the wish to feel the touch of creative whisper close to us.

All materials are supplied. There is no need to bring anything — only yourself, in any state of being.

Each participant will receive a small personal sketchbook to accompany the workshop.

Closely guided and developed by Inbal Nissim based on her own studio practice, and from the belief that a studio can be a non-physical space — one that walks through life with us.

The Spiritual Studio Drawing

A 10-session intuitive drawing workshop, running across three months. Honing attention, search and discovery through the act of drawing.

This workshop offers a self-exploration of marks, lines, and shapes that reflect the individual's internal world. Cultivating intuitive personal expression in its most authentic, unique form.

Leaning on observation as an anchor, you will slowly shift into intuitive work. Learning to see inward and outward, and letting what you see move freely through the hand onto paper.

The Process

During the sessions you will work with drawing pencils, charcoal, and ink — using still life, picture imagery, as well as moving image to train the stiff muscles of expectation to release as much as possible. Once we begin to release the part of us that wants to be in control, that aspires to produce something "successful", we lean more fully into the discovery of our own creative language. That is the language we want to deepen and develop during this workshop.

The first few sessions will be closely guided through expressive, rapid exercises, offering various methods of release and ways to translate and represent reality as it is being grasped, emphasising the integrity of childlike play.

The second part of the workshop will gradually move into intuitive movements, researching new and unfamiliar ways of bringing your inner scenery into a visual form that carries that charged energy.

No experience needed — just the wish to explore through drawing.

The Spiritual Studio Youth

Ten 90-minute sessions of drawing workshop for students in Years 7–12 who are passionate about drawing and painting.

This workshop offers an opportunity to explore the moving hand while observing deeply, discovering different ways of translating what is seen, felt and imagined onto paper. Supporting and cultivating each participant in finding and strengthening their own unique visual language.

Across ten sessions, participants build skills working freely with drawing pencils, charcoals, and coloured pastels. Every session is guided with individual attention, and an emphasis on building each participant's way with the raw, rich, and fantastic creative world that is open to them at this time of growing up.

We will encourage playful methods alongside skill-building, with a strong emphasis on freedom of action, release of motion, and finding confidence in their inner worlds.

The Process

From the anchor of observation, the work will gradually open toward more intuitive mark-making and exploration.

The first part of the workshop focuses on drawing from observation, learning to work with the tools. The second part brings together observation with abstract and more intuitive making.
