How we meet the challenges of life, how we protect our vulnerabilities, and how we maximize our resources determine the course of our lives. Psychological resilience is a person's ability and potential to emerge stronger and brighter from difficult life experiences. People with high psychological resilience cope creatively with the challenges they face in life. This skill is innate in all people and can be recognized and developed throughout life. In the workshop led by clinical psychologist and expressive art therapist Suzi Amado, teachers learn how to develop their psychological resilience. 

Instructor: Suzi Amado
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Each memory tells an intimate story; each collection presents us with the reality of containing an intimate story as well. The collection is akin to a whole in which many memories and stories of the artist, the viewer, and the collector are brought together. At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
