The Power of Portrait – Queer Bridges

The Power of Portrait is a painting workshop where you will work with your self-image and the image of the other. With the help of an easy and playful portrait method you will be sketching the faces of the other group members and ultimately work on your own self-portrait.
Allow yourself to navigate how you think you are perceived by others and gain new self-confidence in your appearance. Especially people you experienced discrimination for the way that they look, the self-image can be a quite complicated one. By playing with colours you get to reconnect to your own reflection and show your true colours.
