Engage with words as a parallel aspect of our creative practice
Define and clarify the language we use in our work
Develop tools to recognize the manner we communicate explicitly and implicitly through our work
Create a space for critical and caring exchanges
WEEKLONG WORKSHOPS
Forthcoming:
THE LANGUAGE OF MAKING
This week we will examine the place that making has in our lives, and how what we do connects to larger conversations. In the last two sessions, participants will share the result of these investigations in the form of a text paired with images of their work and receive feedback from the group.
When we write things down and talk to others, ideas get organized, intentions become clearer, and thoughts materialize. Language allows us to release what is within so that it can manifest, transform, and grow; it also provides a distance that can help us better understand what we do.
The workshop consists of a series of personal exercises, group conversations, individual meetings, and presentations designed to question and challenge our creative process while developing our ability to communicate in verbal and written forms.
Scholarships are available for this program.
In partnership with Mariana Garibay Raeke
