Seeing Yourself Perhaps, the greatest person you will ever know is you. Yet, getting to know one’s true self is often difficult. We often see ourselves accurately through the stained windows of trauma, low self-esteem, and grief. Art has a remedy for this complexity. Self-portrait is one of the oldest art forms and is commonly used by visual artists to create a portrait of themselves. Other artists, such as poets, have adapted the art form. Participating in introspection and seeing yourself accurately can lead to improved relationships, better self-confidence, and a healed vision of one’s self. Self-portraits can be an avenue for you to achieve these significant milestones. Join, poet, Chasity Gunn, for a series of Self-Portrait workshops in February. What you will experience: a welcoming, inspiring environment to read self-portrait poems by poets of various identities and poetic traditions engaging space to talk with other thinkers about their impressions of the poems gent
