Sacred Wreckage

Service Description

In this two-hour collaborative experience, you'll take discarded, broken, and forgotten materials and turn them into something entirely your own — a physical signature of the version of you that survived, rose, and kept going. This isn't an art class. You don't need talent. You need a story. And you have one. Working alongside mixed-media artist Stephanie Austin of Artificed Junk Rescue, who transforms recycled and reclaimed objects into stunning works of art, you'll use whatever calls to you — broken pieces, cast-off materials, things that look like they've been through it — to create something that says: I made it through, and this is what I look like now. The process of choosing discarded objects and giving them new life also renews the life within you. This art is an outward reflection of the rebirth happening in your own soul. The session closes with a Reiki healing and sound bath integration — giving your body time to settle into what you created and what it means. What to Expect Guided intention-setting to open the experience 60+ minutes of hands-on creation with reclaimed and recycled materials Optional: bring your own meaningful items Closing Reiki healing + sound bath What You'll Learn Resin Basics: Types of resin, mixing techniques, safety tips, and how to get rid of bubbles Design & Composition: Creative ways to arrange jewelry, watch parts, circuit boards, and other small treasures — half the fun is the intentional arrangement Embedding Objects: How to securely embed items for a crystal-clear finish What's Included: Every participant receives a resin mold and a curated selection of sustainable materials — shells, stones, industrial parts, broken jewelry, stained glass, pottery, and more. Once your mold is filled, your piece cures overnight and is sanded. Completed projects are returned to the venue for pickup within 1–2 weeks. Want to Bring Something from Home? You are welcome to bring items and mementos that carry meaning — something broken, something you've been holding onto, something that represents a chapter you're ready to close or honor. Please keep in mind that most projects are shallow and small, and some materials do not mix well with resin. Bring them and we'll advise on whether they'll work. What to Wear & Bring Gloves are provided — please wear them Wear clothes you don't mind ruining — resin do
