Dawn is broken - Light Painting Workshops

At regular points throughout the year we will be holding light painting sessions on the grounds of Josephine Butler College. There'll be time for some exploratory play, your own light portrait and then we'll be looking to describe our relationship to space and the environment through light. Subscribe to be kept up to date on the sessions as the weather, moon and stars change.

Walking is broken - Outdoor Workshops

Is broken held a walking session to challenge you to look to your environment with fresh eyes and use it as a source of creativity. Some chose to let the writer in them loose, collecting words along the walk to then give their collection form with Lee. The more visually minded were guided by Alex to reframing their vision through video and photography. They also be collected natural materials to form individual and collaborative sculptures.
