Come take part of one of the Woymnation workshops, running on Fridays!

Flow/Lines

Flowlines is about exploring process, process as art and poetry as thought process. In this workshop our artists learn the foundations of different types of poetry and different types of art-making (sustainable and cheap) where you start from the ground up with materials... and the narratives that come out of that. The art-making will include found objects, priming a painting, egg tempura and other forms of process art. This workshop series is all about collaborating with the process and translating this into your daily practice. The poetry explored will include Haikus, spoken word and sensory poems.


Photovoyce

Photovoyce is about finding relevant truth/a truth in your life and capturing it visually. In this workshop, our artists learn and reflect on their identities and what is true within the context of their lives. Our artists get the opportunity to have their photographs taken in a studio by a professional photographer. Our artists also study other photovoyce artwork and undergo anti-oppression workshops. The object of this workshop is to develop a better understanding of photography and the surrounding world.
