Are you an art lover, wellness seeker, or soul searcher? Our sessions offer a safe space for connection and self-discovery, using artistic modalities, and providing a holistic approach to emotional wellness. Even if you have never painted before, with these workshops you will awaken your Inner healing creator. Olá! I’m Aida I’m the founder of Fluid Art & Wellness, a creative space based in Lisbon, Portugal, where I bring together my passion for art, expression, and meaningful connection. My approach is eclectic, drawing from a wide range of disciplines to offer enriching, experiential sessions that invite you to slow down, explore, and create with intention. With both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Psychology, my background bridges academic training and hands-on practice. I’m certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mhGAP: Psychological Primary Care, and Feng Shui-based face reading. My training in Art Therapy and Community Art was completed at Metàfora in Spain, where I studied under a psychodynamic, relational approach , a foundation that continues to shape the way I hold space for creative exploration. Over the years, I’ve facilitated art-based experiences in many different contexts, including hospitals, international expat circles, LGBTQIA+ communities, and outdoor mindful art sessions in nature. I love working with a range of materials like acrylics, watercolors, clay, collage, and mixed media, adapting each session to meet the moment and the people in the room. Before stepping fully into this path, I spent over 13 years in the corporate world, which now informs my creative group mentoring and team-focused sessions. I enjoy blending my organizational experience with my creative practice to offer workshops that feel both grounded and expansive. Fluent in English, Arabic, and French, I create inclusive, welcoming spaces for people from all backgrounds. Whether you’re based in Lisbon or just visiting, I’d love to invite you to join me in a creative experience that’s fluid, freeing, and uniquely yours. Let’s create something beautiful together.
Not at all. Unfold is not an art class — there are no techniques to learn and no skills required. The focus is entirely on the creative process: slowing down, paying attention, and letting expression come naturally. All experience levels are welcome.
The session begins with a short grounding practice to help you arrive and settle. From there, you'll move into a guided creative exploration using white hand fans, paint, and color, supported by gentle reflective prompts. The process is intuitive and self-paced — there's no right or wrong way to engage.
Everything you need is provided: a white hand fan, paints, brushes, and all art materials. You just need to show up.
You'll leave with a hand-painted fan that you created yourself — something both practical for the Lisbon summer heat and personal to you. Beyond the physical keepsake, the intention is that you also carry a sense of pause: a moment of stillness you carved out for yourself mid-season, and perhaps a little more space to breathe.
