L'École de Papier
Workshop Details
State of Play offers artistic mentoring designed so that each participant can develop their own sustainable practice all while creating a personal project throughout the year.
It interweaves three intersecting and interconnected lines of work:
Cultivating curiosity and visual appetite «eye-petite” training the gaze and visual literacy. Working with constellation research processes, from intuition to organisation.
Engaging in manual and artisanal practices enables us to 'think with our hands,' thereby opening pathways to forms of intuitive knowledge.By entering a 'creative trance,' one can generate rapid, nonjudgmental images through experimental techniques that embrace error and invite surprise.
Granting space and permission to experiment, the sketchbook becomes both a vessel for an artistic practice and a sanctuary for the creative journey.
Application form and course prospectus are available as downloads on the IAPMA website below and below.
