Meditation on Slow Art Day

Through simple meditation exercises and with the help of Monica Sjöö’s visual world, we will immerse ourselves in a moment of silence and reflection, freed from demands and performance.

In a world where life is often experienced as a fast journey through time, it is rare to stop and find moments of stillness and reflection. By allowing yourself to slow down and immerse yourself in your sensory experiences, you have the opportunity to get in touch with your inner world.

No prior knowledge is needed – here you are given the opportunity to experience calm, reflection and inspiring art on a whole new level.

Slow Art Day, which is April 13 each year, has given rise to the “slow art” movement – a movement that encourages people to take time to look at works of art and to look at them in a new way.
