CONNECT WITH YOUR CREATIVE SOURCE
a transformative experience of creativity and self-discovery
part 1
for all levels
29 June - 3 July
"In our quest to understand the world, we often rely on a constrained perspective shaped by sensory experiences, memories, and past emotions. Unconsciously, this approach creates safety barriers that prevent us from tapping into our innate creative spirit.
These barriers are learned, and, therefore, with focused guided practice, they can be unlearned, giving way to what I believe is the most powerful force inside of us - the force of creativity.
In this first edition of the Mallorca Art Retreat, I share the secrets of my creative approach and ritual, which empowers me and has helped many of my students experience the miracle of automatic creativity and happiness from the freedom of being a co-creator of reality. This is not about the technical skill to create but about the ability to create freely and finding the path to transmit your unique message into this world.”
Aigana Gali
a thought from the retreat curator
meet the curator
Aigana Gali is an internationally acclaimed multidisciplinary artist who works across a wide range of media, from canvas and paper to textiles and film. Her works are in private, corporate, and museum collections worldwide.
At the heart of Aigana Gali's artistic endeavours lies a profound exploration of spirituality, deeply rooted in the ancient traditions of the Turkic peoples, notably the shamanic beliefs of Tengri. Drawing inspiration from this rich tapestry of cultural heritage, the artist imbues her works with timeless wisdom, where humanity finds itself nestled between the vast expanse of the celestial Sky-father and the nurturing embrace of the terrestrial Earth-mother.
Aigana Gali's transformative Painting Ritual is a unique method crafted to unlock your inner creative potential and connect you with the universal source of inspiration. This intimate session is limited to just 8 participants.
Guided by Aigana's expert hand and accompanied by meditative music compositions and soothing aromatherapy, you'll immerse yourself in the act of creation. Here, in the sacred space of the canvas, you'll become a conduit for the creative source to manifest through you.
As your brush dances across the canvas, you'll discover hidden depths within yourself, unravelling creative blocks and gaining a deeper understanding of your unique purpose in life. Each stroke becomes a meditation, each colour reflecting your innermost thoughts and desires.
At the Golden Hour discussion, we'll gather over a cup of tea, and you'll have the opportunity to share your experiences and insights with fellow participants.
No prior art or meditation experience is needed—all that's required is an open heart and a willingness to explore the depths of your creativity.

We understand the importance of offering non-inflammatory options, ensuring that every meal contributes to your overall sense of vitality and inner balance.
"Thanks, Aigana! Your teaching style is truly unique. Mixing practicality with spirituality, you've opened up a whole new world of self-expression for me. The first ritual alone brought a wave of spiritual clarity I didn't know I needed. Your lessons are packed with tangible strategies that I'll carry into my daily life, not just my painting sessions. In just one day, I've uncovered so much about myself. Can't wait to dive deeper!"
- Veronica Page, UK
Aigana Gali's teaching is a game-changer. As an ER doctor with zero painting experience, her approach blew me away. It's not just about painting; it's about tapping into your true potential through deep diving into the roots of your creativity. Her blend of meditation, painting rituals, and group talks is unlike anything I've encountered. Aigana's guidance is transformative, whether you're a seasoned artist or a complete newbie like me. This experience has been life-changing, and I can't recommend it enough. I can't wait to come back for more classes."

what the students say
"Joining Aigana Gali’s program was inspirational. Her philosophy that creativity lies innate in all of us, eagerly waiting to be discovered, profoundly changed my approach to art. Having some painting experience, I was amazed to see absolute beginners around me thrive under her guidance. Aigana doesn’t just teach; she inspires and empowers, making her sessions a beacon for aspiring artists and seasoned creators alike. Her teachings have instilled in me a renewed sense of purpose and freedom in my artistic endeavors."
- Kira Stepaniuk, Russia
"When I came to Aigana, I was at a low point and knew I needed an outlet. I intuitively felt that painting would be an extraordinary creative way to heal and build a new outlook on life. But I felt intimidated and didn’t know where to start. The hours Aigana and I spent together unblocked me, gave me tools to pursue my creativity, inspired me and led to a now consistent creative practice, which has not only been an emotional game-changer for me but also led to me creating art that I have now decorated my house with and gifted to friends and family! I cannot think of a better person to have accompanied me on this journey than Aigana. She is extraordinarily talented, kind, patient and multi-faceted. Spending time with her is never about just learning how to paint, it’s about learning how to live life mindfully and creatively, with an open heart and open mind."
