Your Art Making: Your Journey
10 Week Class ONLINE | Available
This ONLINE course offers new gazes into your artworks: in the safe space of our class, we share views into our studios, looking at each participant's artworks and works-in-progress. We find articulation and sharing of our individual life-stories and how they play a role for our artistic practise. Discovering each other’s work, our sessions offer an inspiring, creative space to brainstorm about our artwork and focus on potential developments in content, process, aesthetics and materiality. And we might think of their existence our our artwork beyond your studio-walls.
Note: This course is suited to the experienced artist with a body of work, and/or an artistic practice for at least 2 years. Also, a curiosity about how other artists create and their works is beneficial.
Base Tuition: $480
