Francine Bonjour-Carter

Fancine Bonjour-Carter

My Approach & Values:

I am an artist, writer, somatic awareness educator, and facilitator with a long‑standing interest in Jungian psychology, symbolism, creativity, and the process of individuation. My work integrates mixed-media art, visual journaling, and reflective exercises to support insight, transformation, and self-discovery.

I view and experience imagination as an ally for transformation.

Imagination offers an endless flow of possibilities in our journey of personal growth, insight, and meaning. I believe that we live in a culture of poverty of imagination, and it is essential to reclaim it as a doorway into a better future for individuals, communities, and the planet.

My approach is shaped by years of clinical experience as a Feldenkrais practitioner, ongoing study, and a respect for the intelligence of each person's nervous system. I am particularly interested in the places where body, psyche, and meaning intersect.

Whether you are experienced or new to art, I create spaces where curiosity, experimentation, and personal reflection are central. Participants are invited to explore imagery, develop a personal visual language, and engage in a process-oriented practice that balances creativity, reflection, and play.

Over the years, I have led workshops, courses, and retreats in the U.S. and France, bringing together diverse groups of participants to explore creative practice and embodiment as a pathway to insight and personal growth.
