Explore Creativity
  • Select words from existing text, form an expression or phrase, then block out the rest.

  • This form of creative writing is also known by names such as  "Found Poetry", "Erasure Poetry", "Caviardarge Technique",  etc.

  • With each attempt a different word or phrase will catch your imagination!

  • With each style will capture a different mood or phrase! 

  • The resulting artwork would be very diverse than from what you would do given an infinite canvas.

 Enhance  Intuition & Self -Awareness
  • By noticing what stands out to you, new insights emerge from within.

  • Art therapists use this technique in their workshops with Hikikomori (persons who exhibit extreme withdrawal from society) and autistic children.

  • Repurposing and reordering of content  stimulates the brain  and enhances the ability to unlearn, thus enabling oneself to explore possibilities outside of one's own boundaries.
