A unique weekend workshop blends cognitive exploration with art to help individuals find balance, and decipher complex internal questions

Participants create artworks as an exercise
When it comes to art and emotions, there are numerous misconceptions. From the hurt and frenzied Van Gogh at work, or a delirious Francisco Goya creating masterpieces on the walls of his house with charcoal, stories abound. Yet, an increasing number of urban citizens are turning to the canvas for answers about themselves.
For first generation art therapist Natasha Singh of the Art & Therapy Studio, it is a familiar experience. She established the studio with co-founder Reena Ramakrishnan in March this year, and has been trying to spread the word since. This weekend, Singh and fellow therapist Amrita Dhillon, will host a one-time only biography workshop in Bandra that blends cognitive and artistic therapy practices.
