A/Void  2.

workshop with girl jonah (Caroline Bowditch & Fiona Wright)

Thursday 25th & Friday 26th October 2012
10.30am - 4.30pm
BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art
Gateshead, Tyne & Wear, UK

A two-day workshop opportunity for disabled and non-disabled artists to reflect on their own practice with an interest in working with the body as a potential research source or actual material - whether this is in  visual arts, performance, theatre, writing, dance, music...

We will take time and take space to reflect on our art making, through cross-disciplinary approaches and exchange, working through observation and response including writing and improvisation with an emphasis on process and experimentation.

The workshop aims to be as accessible as possible and inclusive to a range of backgrounds; no formal physical training is necessary, just an open approach to your own practice and to being part of the group and this opportunity for shared professional development.

We will ask for a short proposal describing why you want to take part in  A/Void 2  at this time.
