Janin Walter uses a meditation technique called “emotional body healing” to understand the language of the body. Focusing on physical sensations during meditation provides an opportunity to understand which parts of the body are associated with which specific forms of emotion – and which experience is at the core of that emotion.
For the exhibition, the artist will use this technique to investigate different kinds of fears, with the aim of identifying the experience at the core of each one in order to reprogram it. The process will be captured on a 1 x 1.5 m canvas.
With a group of five to ten participants, Janin Walter will use different meditation techniques in an “Intuitive Color Field Painting Workshop” to examine and dispel their various fears. A book will be produced from the event, and the workshop will be documented with photos and videos.
