FINE Students - Grounded workshop

Carnivals.fi lisätietonapin tunnus

Grounded is a low-threshold, meditative art experience built around slowing down and being present.

Using coffee grounds as your medium, you’re invited to create simple shapes, patterns, or abstract forms through touch and movement.

You can follow your own imagination or use visual prompts for guidance. The process is slow and repetitive: create, pause, wipe the surface, and begin again. Nothing is saved, the focus is on the act of creating, not the outcome.

In a fast-paced world, Grounded offers a simple way to pause, reconnect with your senses, and explore creativity without pressure.
