#drawingbreath: brush and water on paper.

Limina’s workshop for families @britishlibrary explored themes from the new #Buddhism exhibition. “What will happen to our drawings after we make them?” “They will fade - just like our breath!” Thank you to all the families who joined Lucia and Karly for mindful drawing, mandala printing, mindfulness of sounds, mindful walking and short guided sessions of mindful movement and meditation.
Limina has enjoyed working with British Library curators and Learning staff to bring mindfulness approaches to learning events for #Buddhism: an exhibition trail for families, ‘Take a Breath’ family workshop, and ‘Art and Mindfulness’ adult workshop (30 Nov-1 Dec, see link in bio for info and tickets). .

Our new exhibition trail for #Buddhism @britishlibrary includes the invitation to post your images using #blbuddhafootsteps

Join us! ‘Taking a photograph is like a mini meditation: it can help us notice what’s around us in this moment, and to choose what to focus on.
Plant your feet firmly on the ground and take a picture.

It could be in the exhibition, outside, or somewhere you feel is special, peaceful or full of colour.
Share your photograph (or other artwork) using #blbuddhafootsteps’

#bodyscan: ‘to place your attention systematically anywhere in your body that you want it to go and purposefully direct energy of various kinds, in the form of attention, kindness, friendliness, and acceptance, into that region or regions’ (Jon Kabat-Zinn, ‘Full Catastrophe Living’) .

Image: Antony Gormley, drawing on carbon- and casein-soaked paper, Earth Body series, 2017-18 . ‘The 'Earth Body' drawings are made in a spirit of total immersion in repeated, definitive, sequential incisions... It could be said that the drawings make themselves, each evolving into a particular site. They identify a place of contemplation, energisation and potential identification, without occupying it.’ (antonygormley.com)
