Herbal Support for Activating Creativity
This workshop uses teachings from The Artist’s Way and personal experience as an artist to open people up to creativity through reflection exercises and communing with plants.
Sesalli Castillo…
is a queer, chicanx, abstract artist, herbalist, and facilitator. Working with paint, collage, textiles, film & plants is her way of processing her history and place in the world today. Sesalli’s practice is rooted in remembering plants as teachers and leaning on imagination as a tool for collective liberation. Sesalli is one of the founding members of We Care for Us, an online community care clinic offering liberatory BIPOC-centered community herbal care. They are also one of the founders of Experiments in Freedom, an art services collaborative and facilitation hub creating space for people to access and explore creativity, self-nourishment, and connection with nature. In 2024, Sesalli participated in Portland 5's Youth Artist Capital Program, mentoring young artists in Multnomah County.
