The first meeting of the “Sztuką przez Intymność” workshop series took place on February 27, 2026. It opened a series of activities combining psychoeducation, body work and creative expression with clay.
In the psychological part, participants explored their relationship with their bodies and talked about how a culture of comparison affects self-esteem, and about ways of developing a kinder, more supportive attitude towards themselves. An important element of the meeting was reflecting on the idea that the body is a process that changes along with our lives, not a project that needs constant improvement.
The second part of the workshop was artistic. Working with clay, participants created individual forms inspired by their own experience of the body. The resulting works reflected a variety of emotions, sensations and perspectives, showing how creative expression can support the process of getting to know oneself.
We thank all the participants for their active involvement, openness and commitment. We are glad that together we are creating a safe space for conversation, reflection and creative work.
The “Sztuką przez Intymność” project is co-funded by the European Union through a grant awarded by the Batory Foundation.
