Hiromi Tango's Amygdala—Healing Garden brings together ideas of focusing on nature to help restore a state of calm and health with the protective factors of strengthening social connections, and meditative art-making processes.
Over the holidays you can visit USC Art Gallery to participate in an Amygdala—Healing Garden workshop.
Drawing on the healing properties of plants and flowers in the local environment, participants will come together to co-create a garden installation at USC Art Gallery.
You will with work with a trained Healing Gardener who will show you how to create some of the beautiful flowers of the Sunshine Coast. They will guide you through creating different types of petals, leaves and stems.
The session is also an opportunity to reflect on the natural environment, share stories, and experience the unique satisfaction of seeing your efforts combine to create a beautiful garden.
Due to COVID-19 bookings are essential. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
