Wallace Collection with Veterans Dementia UK
The theme is the Dutch 17/18th century painter Jan van Huysum. Session led by Marc, Senior Learner from The Wallace Collection.
We will start by looking closely at one painting, see what we notice. I will use what our participants recognise and notice as a springboard for further exploration. I call them entry points into the painting (this could be a colour, a shape, a fruit, a flower, butterfly, leaf . . .)
Each entry point in, can become a departure point for each participant, an invitation to explore their thoughts, feelings, memories of encounters with an object or particular part of the painting e.g. a poppy, a plum, an insect . . .) I hold space for conversations about these reflections and then fold back in to the painting, which provides an infinite array of multiple entry points.
Booking is essential -please state which session and time you are interested in
