Art in nature


Monday 1 - Friday 5 May 2023
Course by Jeroen Spijker @ Bogata Šuma

Modeling, sculpting and painting in nature

This creative course (for beginners and advanced) teaches you new techniques and views on your artwork. It can be a nice start in moulding or sculpting, and it's definitely a nice atmosphere for outdoor creativity.

You can choose to deepen your techniques in sculpting, moulding or painting, or a combination of techniques. In the second half of the week you can change materials or techniques.

The result: usually people make two clay figurines, one or two paintings, or a stone sculpture in a week.

Cultural Emergence and permaculture - design for change

In this course you will learn about permaculture and Cultural Emergence as a toolkit for transformation. You will learn some practical tools and skills to bring (more) connection and sustainability in your life.

This course is not about talking about changing the world for the better; it is about learning tools to actively do things and see it working!

We will design with regenerative ethics and principles and take action for a better future. This course teaches you a permaculture design framework and you will have dedicated time to work on your own design.
