Each participant is requested to draw individually “their most beautiful painting” on a piece of paper, using any colours and shapes they wish. When they finish, the facilitator asks them to tear their own drawings into pieces. This is usually painful, but participants are requested to do so and keep all the pieces. Participants then form pairs and add their own torn pieces to those of their partner. Now, with the new set of pieces that they have, they are requested to make a new composition – collage – on a new piece of paper. They can paint extra things, give new meanings, make it three dimensional, and, in general, they are free to create any composition they wish in agreement with their partner. During the discussion we ask the participants to share their feelings about the activity. Which painting did they find more interesting in the end — the one they made themselves, on their own, or the one that they created in pairs? In the discussion we can stress the importance of collaboration and mutual support, especially in cases where someone feels that something important for his / her life has just been destroyed.
