Teachers

  • November 23, 2024 / 16:00

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).

Memory of Objects

Memory of Objects

In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.

Memory of the Region

Memory of the Region

Objects also bear the memory of the geography to which they relate. Ceramics, with soil as their primary material, are directly linked to the land where they are produced: forging a direct relationship with earth, ceramics bear the memory of the soil where they come from.

Remembering the Future

Remembering the Future

How can the future be imagined by looking at a collection or an archive? The lasting quality of ceramics allows us to ponder how the future might be remembered through a ceramics collection, since they render conceivable time eternal.
