Birds of Alchemy

The works presented here are the results of 5 art wellbeing workshops led by Samina Bukhari funded by a Trafford Council neighbourhood grant. They were a journey of self-exploration incorporating Meditation and creativity. Participants at all stages of their creative path worked with several fundamental art practices and mediums.




The workshops have been based around the symbolism of five birds, The Crow, The Swan, The Peacock, The Pelican and finally the Phoenix- bird’s element is air- these creatures mediate between the earth and sky symbolic of the meditative mind, seeking higher perspectives and illustrating the evolving state of the soul.
