Hypnosis Art

Partnership with Duke Arts Create & DuWell

Taught by Sherly Fan

About the Workshop

This workshop will teach and utilize hypnosis techniques to help participates to release their anxiety and discover the power of the unconscious mind. Participates will be encouraged to use their inner creativity to create images and discover themselves through the creative process.

About the Instructor

Sherly Fan is a multimedia artist who is currently pursuing an MFA in Experimental Documentary Arts at Duke University. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Textile and Fashion Design from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and an Associate’s degree in Fashion Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology. After getting her Bachelor’s degree, she worked in the New York fashion industry for a year.
