Due to popular demand, TEDxQUT are excited to announce a second iteration of our Neurographica Salon with Art Therapist and Mental Health Clinician, Kirsty Mitchell.

Arts and creative practices have been used throughout human history to explore, process and understand the world around us, providing a broad range of psychological, emotional, physical and social benefits.

This workshop is an invitation to learn a technique called Neurographica (neuro=brain; graphica=line) - a creative tool to help support your mental health and wellbeing. Neurographica is a scientifically validated form of guided drawing that uses line, shape and colour in an art process that transforms thoughts, feelings, and experiences as energy onto your page. This session will provide you with an overview of the technique and an opportunity to create your own artwork.

It is a therapeutic process that provides a tangible and accessible flow state experience where you can de-stress and reflect, allowing you to create and enjoy.

Whether you love drawing, need some space to nurture your mental health, or are a TEDx enthusiast, this event is for everyone!
