Dinner with Birthe: Creative Reflection at her studio
Birthe is a mosaic artist, facilitator, and former leadership developer who has spent over 30 years working with learning, creativity, and change. Her studio in Vanløse is built around the idea that hands-on creation can open new ways of seeing, and that reflection begins with action.  This experience combines a homemade meal with structured group reflection, personal storytelling, and a simple creative mapping exercise using mosaic materials. As the evening begins, guests are invited to share a question that’s currently present in their life: something they’re thinking about, facing, or curious about. Birthe will share her own journey, her choices, transitions, and the role of creativity in her life and work. She will then guide guests to a creative mapping exercise, to reflect on where they are in their lives by making something physical. The evening ends with shared dialogue about what has been created. This is both a social dinner and a cosy way of growing your understanding where you are in life, together with a group of others trying to do the same.  About Birthe Birthe is the founder of Mosaik Magi and Art of Balance. Her work brings together decades of experience in communication, leadership, creative practice, and transformation. She is known for her ability to create welcoming environments where people feel safe enough to reflect honestly. Her mosaics, made with found and reused materials, are a living expression of her philosophy: that meaning can emerge from what’s been broken, reassembled, or quietly waiting to be seen in a new way.
