INDEX OF WORKSHOPS:
Drawing as an Act of Generosity Kim Sloane In which we draw “atomic balls of string” with charcoal on newsprint, and something brand new jumps out of the page. Thinking Space/Drawing Space Andrea Kantrowitz In which we draw the process of unfolding origami boxes, making three dimensions become two, and back again The Ambidextrous Drawing Merrie Koester In which we explore the bilateral symmetry of insects using both our hands, and the rest of our bodies too. Drawing Gym Michael Namkung In which, we draw on the wall while sitting on it and we become quite tired, but very happy. Both/And Drawing Angela Rogers & Duncan Bullen In which we explore ambiguity and polarised thinking through collaborative drawing, then we negotiate, surrender and share control Navigating Irreducible Humanity (with a pencil) Thomas Bosket In which we create tasks for others to follow in drawing humble objects from observation, we start off silently, and then continue quietly Verbal Drawing Joanna Neil In which we describe an object with words before drawing it, as talking and drawing go hand in hand. Collaborative, Narrative Drawing Lucy Lyons, Philippa Lyon & Patrick Letschka In which narratives are read out loud as participants draw, and we use our imagination. Makers of Imagery Susan Beniston & Cynthia Hellyer Heinz In which a collaborative 3D installation using both traditional and non-traditional materials is made as our drawing jumps out of the page. Collaborative Network Drawing Clare Scanlon & Paul Grivell In which points and lines are connected and so are we. Explore Where You Are Rosie James & Marcia Teusink In which we draw and stitch a collaborative mural based on observations and historical photos, to slow down and reflect on the place where we are. On Loneliness and Contact Emma Fält In which we make a large scale, collaborative floor drawing with ink on paper, and are alone with others. A River Runs Through Us Jill Journeaux In which quick sketches at the river’s edge prompt metaphorical drawings of the self the river inspires us, and we feel whole. Animating the Bargehouse Sara Schneckloth In which many drawings create an animated projection, then we all go up to the attic and it comes alive Embodied Anatomy Emily Sheehan In which we pull faces while we draw them |
