This special ink art winter immersion is a collaborative retreat created by Yama Ki and renown Japanese ink artist Junko Azukawa, offering participants a unique opportunity for a full one and half day Japanese ink art retreat and an overnight stay in a secluded forest.
We will drop into the stillness of winter in the Yarra Valley mountains, and be warmed by the wood fire, nourishing home cooked meals, and gentle qigong/meditative practices. You will have an opportunity for two immersive workshops facilitated by Junko - sumi-e ink art workshop on Saturday and stamp carving workshop on Sunday. Throughout the retreat, we will explore the theme “what lies in the spaces between” – in relationship to time, creativity, work and home.
Please join us for this ink art winter immersion, where we remove ourselves from distractions, immerse in nature, and drop into our bodies and creative flow.
Only 10 spaces available for this intimate retreat.
