This workshop is an invitation to let go of the idea that you need to “be good at drawing” in order to be creative.
The artist Rianne Bouter (who'll be participating in the Basel Art Summer Camp) will guide you through simple, playful exercises that focus on movement rather than outcome - helping you connect with creativity in a natural, enjoyable way.
It’s not about creating something perfect. It’s about being in the moment, exploring without pressure, and enjoying the process. Whether you feel “not creative” or haven’t touched a pencil in years, this is a chance to slow down, try things out, and maybe even surprise yourself.
Come as you are. No pressure, just create.
What is included in the workshop:
- a coffee (or drink of your choice) at the Hyve Hostel Café
- guided session by one of the resident artists
- all materials needed for the workshop (pens, paper)
