It was wonderful in our last session to find out that Izzati has included so many of us in her mandala pictured here. Zu is in the middle as the constant flower, then surrounded by Armani.
Then Sarah is there with pink elements, then Charlie with yellow and green.
Thompson and his blues with dark strokes and where is Andi?
He’s around the circumference!

In sessions three and four, we’ve been sharing our metaphors together and how they relate to our leadership styles and motivation. We have explored Izzati’s butterfly but also what the flower means in her artworks. Thompson’s lava lamp clearly illustrates his nature and the way he approaches things. Ferb is Andi’s metaphor and we can see Andi when we watch the animation episodes! Charlotte’s lightening is something that bolts with challenge but also joy! We are learning all about each other in sharing our metaphors. Sync always does this whatever the programmes we run!

Wonderful to share Pixel Kim, a dear artist friend from South Korea as an example of a quiet, charismatic, collaborative leader.
Pixel’s art making is infectious. When he starts making, other artists come and join him and start making too. This week we started to explore the different ways we approach making artwork in our session. It was so good to do that together.
Izzati shared that she has many pieces on the go at any one time, it keeps her happy. Charlie shared the inspiration for her new work as part of the residency, once she’s found the image, she goes straight to canvas. Thompson uses pencils to explore the work before he starts to paint. Andi is still thinking about where he might focus his thinking and artwork on at this time. He has many followers and many ideas he wants to realise.
