Creative Block Lab . Small artist cohort in Berlin (limited spots)
Hi everyone,
I’m a filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist currently based in Berlin, and I’m starting a small in-person cohort for artists who feel stuck, blocked, or disconnected from their work.
Over the past years, while making my last film, I went through a long and difficult creative block. In that process, I began researching the emotional and psychological patterns that stop artists from creating. I call them creative monsters, forces like perfectionism, comparison, fear, shame, or paralysis.
Creative Block Lab is a small, intimate space where we explore those patterns together and slowly reconnect with the impulse to make honest, authentic art.
This is not a technical workshop and not a productivity bootcamp.
It’s a reflective, human-centered space for artists of any medium.
Format
This is a 3-session cohort (same group each time), designed to build trust and continuity.
Each session (1.5–2 hours) includes:
• Short introductions and check-in
• A guided reflection on one or two creative “monsters”
• Practical tools or small mindset shifts
• A 30-minute creation exercise
(you can bring something you’re already working on, or just experiment with simple materials provided)
• Group sharing and integration
The intention is to:
• reconnect with your artistic voice
• reduce the pressure to be perfect
• create in a supportive, non-judgmental space
• leave with practical tools you can use in your daily practice
Who it’s for
Artists of any discipline:
• visual arts
• writing
• music
• performance
• film
• or any experimental/undefined practice
No experience level required.
What matters most is honesty and willingness to explore.
Important note
Because the group is intentionally small (around 10 people), there’s a short application form.
This isn’t about selection based on skill or prestige, it’s just to keep the group size intimate and make sure the space feels right for everyone.
There are only a few spots left for this first cohort.
