As part of the public program accompanying the current exhibitions, Ojos que Sienten will lead a flower pressing workshop that begins with an exploration of flowers and natural elements through their textures, shapes, and scents, incorporating moments in which participants will wear a blindfold.

Each participant will create a composition using previously pressed flowers while learning about the pressing and preservation process. The workshop will conclude with a Sensory Photography activity using cameras provided by Ojos que Sienten. The resulting photograph will be delivered to each participant digitally at a later date.
