Painting & Pleasure - Exploring Freedom and Pleasure through Painting & Writing in Corfu

Join artist Philippe Nirav and sex coach Alison Pilling for a magical creative retreat in Arillas, exploring freedom and pleasure through painting and writing. Spend your days moving between the breathtaking landscapes of Arillas: painting in the peaceful atmosphere of Philippe’s garden, and writing and sharing in an old olive press at a traditional Corfiot villa in Magoulades. Enjoy sunsets, time on the beach, and intimate evening gatherings. Fall in love with art, with Arillas, and with the joy of creative freedom.

Philippe Nirav is the author of "Daring the Truth" and "Painting from Within". After spending 30 years in India searching for that which never dies, he settled in Arillas, Corfu in 2020, where he facilitates intuitive painting workshops and shares his unique vision of creativity.

Alison Pilling is a tantric heretic, writer, artist and sex coach. She moved to Corfu in 2023 after hearing a voice encouraging her to buy Mandala House, and since then she’s risking it all to follow her dream of an artists residency. 

Held between their private homes and the natural beauty of Arillas, Philippe and Alison invite you to explore painting and writing as paths to self-awareness, freedom, connection, and love. Through intuitive art practices and bold exploration, you’ll discover new insights into yourself, joy, and beauty. All wrapped in a nourishing holiday experience.
