Writing from a (safe) distance Workshop

Admission: By Donation via Eventbrite

Join Centre 42’s Writer-In-Residence Michelle Tan in an exploratory text-based workshop about the necessity of finding distance in artmaking.

How do we separate ourselves from the art we make? When it comes to writing or creating from a personal place, how might we lay bare the self while simultaneously protecting it? How might a writer/artist use vulnerability in a way that is illuminating rather than indulgent?

This is an exploratory text-based workshop about the necessity of finding distance in artmaking, where participants are encouraged to also share their own ways of achieving this in their individual practice, or bring any questions/thoughts they might have about the function of distance in art.
