WAEN facilitates creative workshops for women who feel invisible in today’s gender health gap.
WAEN PRESENTS : THE ART OF SUMINAGASHI
Working in collaboration with Buoyant Press, the workshop introduced particpants to the mediative and ancient Japanese art of Suminagashi.
Suminagashi translates ‘ink floating’. With a guided practice from Karolina Slup of Buoyant Press, we learnt how to embrace painting on water where particpants created their unique pieces. Suminagashi is a fascinating medium to embrace within health and wellness as it is said that every emotion of the maker becomes registered in the pattern made.

The project market was an opportunity to take WAEN into a physical space to discuss the intentions and upcoming events and ideas. It was a wonderful opportunity to be in a showcase alongside other local grassroot initatives in South East London.
