A guided 90 minute virtual practice in naming and mapping the interior.

We begin with a short artist talk, then move into writing. I give you a prompt and we go from there. We will move through words, even as they’re still forming. Then, we shift between image-making and sharing , working with text and visuals side by side. We make marks together until something begins to take shape, and slowly emerges from within into something we can see.

We practice to slow down and translate what’s often unspoken—thoughts, sensations, emotions, inner noise—into form.

• You don’t need to be an artist. You don’t need to know what you’re making before you begin.

You will leave with your Inner Map: a visual + textual work that holds a trace of your inner landscape.

There is a part of us that has been over-performing, over-navigating, doom-scrolling, grief-holding. Living in spaces that don’t always have room for what’s complex, still-forming, or unexpressed. This workshop is a small return to that complexity: a gentle sway with your inner life.

An ecology is a web of relationships where everything affects everything else. Nothing is separate. What lives inside us is not separate from how we move through the world. What we give attention to begins to shift.

• For women and those who move in the experience of being a woman.

• A practice of presence, making, and being witnessed without performance.

• No-pressure space. Screen on or off. Share or don’t. Come as you are with a cup of tea or something warm.

• One complimentary seat is available each session, no questions asked, first come first served. To claim it, email: vanja@vanjavukelic.com

• After registering, in the week of the practice, you’ll receive a Zoom link and a light preparation note before the session.

• Will not be recorded.

I look forward to guiding you into this practice with me.
