Last May (2023) I was approached by PhD student Holly Drover (who works under the Wellcome Trust Leicestershire Health Inequalities Improvement Programme) to collaborate with her to devise an arts based workshop to investigate breathlessness for groups of people who have a range of conditions which affect their breathing. I designed a workshop for the groups using watercolour techniques to express how individuals felt about their breath and exploring their felt experience through embodied practices, of meditation and walking in nature. The workshops were held at Botanic Garden Leicester University in April 2024. And the results of the workshops alongside the research Holly conducted was presented in an exhibition on 3rd September this year. An article was published about the event here.
