Offering young people the opportunity to engage in both hands-on visual arts practice, as well as facilitated discussion, this workshop creates a space for growth and critical reflection.
Inspired by Tammy Law’s 2021 residency project Fractured Dreams & Indefinite Scars, students are supported to consider the changes in perspective that can result from engaging with human stories using aesthetic tools. This means that themes such as identity, representation, citizenship status, belonging and exclusion may be viewed in a new light.
Workshop (1 hour)
Drawing on the outcomes of Tammy Law’s residency, students are exposed to a unique collection of stimuli where they may employ the language of photographic portraiture in conversation with social history.
MoB’s Artist in Residence program is supported by Tim Fairfax AC.
