Shadows of the Soul: A Self-Portrait Workshop

Events

Art

Shadow work involves exploring and integrating the hidden, unconscious aspects of one’s personality. Rooted in Jungian psychology, it delves into suppressed emotions and unresolved issues, fostering self-awareness and personal growth. By facing and embracing the “shadow,” individuals strive for wholeness, acceptance, and balance in their lives.

Join resident artist HOPE McCorkle for a self-portrait workshop and tour of her solo exhibition “dancing with my shadows: a journey to self-discovery” in Creative Alliance’s Amalie Rothschild Gallery. Participants are invited to experience the artwork in the gallery, inspired by shadow work, self-love, transformation, and healing followed by a collage artmaking session in the Creativity Center. Attendees will create self-portraits of their shadow selves on the cover of journals (provided) to support and encourage their shadow work journey.
