Experiences of art and connection

Art, writing and connection gatherings for communities, teams and organizations. So the women in your community or team leave lighter, more connected and with something made by their own hands.

Three ways to create in your space

I also design tailor-made experiences and multi-session series, in English or Spanish.

✷talk & workshop

The Artist's Way

1 to 1.5 h20 to 150 womenin person or online

A talk and workshop to bring creativity back into everyday life: a short introduction and plenty of guided practice. Each woman leaves with a simple tool and something she made herself.

Art Life Session

1.5 to 2 h8 to 30 womenin person or online

Writing, collage and colour to slow down, listen to yourself and create a piece of your own. Nobody needs to know how to draw: the method guides you step by step.

✦special experience

Oracle Table

2 to 2.5 h12 to 30 womenin person

Breakfast, afternoon tea or an aperitivo around Mi Mejor Amiga: Yo (My Best Friend: Me), the oracle book I wrote. Each woman receives her own copy with 22 cards, draws one, writes and shares. An intimate gathering with a gift that stays with her afterwards.

✧ what they say

Spaces that have created with me

If you're looking for an experience that is sensitive, original and truly touches the participants' hearts, you have to work with her.
Ana Montero and Sofía Barreto
Diversión Solidaria Foundation
In every session she achieved something very hard in a work setting: getting women to pause, listen to themselves and create something of their own.
Cica Sampaio
Client Partner, Meta
She has her own way of creating a climate of trust: women arrive as strangers and leave having shared something intimate and made with their own hands.
Estefanía Gambin
co-founder of Mussa
Bárbara's workshop was a true inner journey. The most beautiful part was seeing that every attendee loved the experience.
