Mark and Movement

More memories of the Mirroring Project...

Over a two week period I conducted 30 sessions of 30 minutes Bilateral Drawing Mirroring sessions via zoom with people from across the globe. I invited each participant to engage in continuous bilateral drawing for 20 minutes, I would mirroring their movements and mark making in response, trying to catch their flow. At the end of the session I asked a series of questions about their felt experience.

The premise of the project was to exploring the felt experience of having another person mirror movements and also noticing how emotions and energy shifts by engaging with bilateral drawing.

The videos, words and images in this body of work have been taken from these sessions as way of consolidating the findings of exploration as they were made during this time in October 2021. After this project I went on to explore group Bilateral Drawing Mirroring sessions to explore how dynamics change when we attempt share space, take on each other ideas and energy together.

This is the video I made to stitch together some findings of what was emerging. Thank you, thank you to those who participated.

Here's a big fish I caught.

Nah, here's me working my way through the and it's day 18.

My little muse (my cat) has been very influential and involved this year, sometimes even making small contributions.

I'm enjoying the challenge on a deeper level this year. This is the gift that repetition provides; once you've sweep out all cob webs of the mind. You know; thoughts that are sticky or sharp; judgements, critismism, focus on outcomes. Evaluating rather than experiencing and witnessing. There is a bigger picture of what could be possible when you create a daily ritual of creativity; but sometimes there is stuff in the way. That's normal. Why wouldn't it be?

We are all working with unique challenges and there is no better place to be than where you're at -- but knowing where you are is the very important thing is we want shift and movefrom where we are.

Of course, my fav part of the challenge is seeing what others are creating. We've got the same prompts but we create so differently. It's amazing. It's like getting to see pages from story books and I want to dive into each image and see what happens next.

Thank you to everyone participanting for your efforts, enthusiasm and grit. It's wonderful being connected through the lines.

Did you know that about 23% of people end up quitting their news years resolutions in the first week and 64% giving up by the end of January.

Rather than settings goals this workshop invites you craft an intention for 2026. We'll choose a guiding word that helps focus and hold our overall desires for new year. We'll craft, adorn and journal about this intention and by the end of workshop be ready to start moving in the direction with a precious reminder tucked away in your pocket.

This workshop is not goal orientated, it's not about have all the answers; it's about have space to gently dream and welcome in synchronisaties.

Creative intention-setting workshop: Craft your vision for 2026 through paper folding and mixed media.
