Dates: 14-18 July 2025Time: 10:00 - 17:00Fee: £585 / Early Bird: £545Level: Beginners (18+ years)Tutor: Ana VicenteIn this five-day intensive course, we will take drawing in its rawest sense and explore ways to connect with it to understand, record and reframe being in the world. Together we will take drawing as a process and not as a fixed outcome; and expand it in the direction of movement, sculpture, writing and performance. We will focus on the importance of creative experimentation as we engage with a range of materials, sites, processes and ideas. We will explore the possibilities of drawing as a language, as a way of thinking and as a way of imagining a world. COURSE DESCRIPTIONThis course will be structured by posing a series of propositions devised to ignite your curiosity for exploration and for thinking through making. The course aims to create a space where you develop your own definitions of what drawing is for you, free of expectation, judgement, or conceptually accepted norms. We will use methods and materials that may not be immediately associated with drawing in its most traditional sense. Some of our methods will include walking, asemic writing, sensorial mark-making, choreographic scores and others. You will work individually as well as collaboratively. At the end of the course, you will have explored a set of approaches that you can use in your own practice. Such approaches will develop your confidence in employing creative ways of understanding, recording and reframing the world underpinned by an expanded drawing practice that is personally meaningful to you. What to expect Looking at a range of examples of drawing as expanded practice, discussions, themed propositions and associated guided ‘exercises’, lots of playfulness, experimentation with materials, scale and movement, working with embodied and somatic methods, working with process-based approaches not always resulting in a finished outcome, working collectively and exploring own individual interests independently. No experience of art or drawing is necessary, but a sense of curiosity and openness to play and explore both individually and as part of a group is essential. This course will be useful for anyone interested in exploring/ reigniting their creative practice therefore it is also suitable for (but not restricted to) artists, designers, architects, filmmakers, dancers, writers and performers. What’s included: all teaching, materials and tools specific to the different daily activities What isn’t included: your meals, and we advise you to bring a sketchbook/notebook, pens, pencils, scissors and any other mark-making materials of your choice. A camera or mobile phone for taking photographs and/or video is also advisable but not essential. You may be asked to source own objects to bring for specific sessions.
