Every seed carries a story within, a quiet mystery to be revealed...
In this workshop we will try to listen to what avocado seed is whispering and let our hands be guided to the form that is already inside.
With no pressure or fixed outcome. Not forcing but revealing... Just with presence, curiosity and creativity.
During these few hours we will also be practising patience, presence and surrender.
From this process, a small form or piece will emerge, something to carry with you... Maybe it will become a bracelet, a necklace, a lovely present or a small art work.
We will learn, in silent communication with the material, how to safely carve an avocado seed that will become hard and beautiful as wood.
