A CREATIVE PROCESS WORKSHOP

Máire Fisher, writer, and Joan Adams, artist and ceramicist

Participants will explore the creative process through guided writing and collage exercises . Making a collage allows one to see the natural symbiosis between new pictures and existing ones and between newly written stories and previously gathered words, tales, conversations and events . There is a sense of agglomeration, assortment, medley and mélange in collage: what is torn and cut eventually combines to reflect thought, character or story . The same happens through freewriting . The aim of this workshop is to allow pictures to lead to words, words to story, story back into pictures . It will help anyone wanting to embark on a creative process.

A list of materials will be supplied on registration.
