'Where do you live?' Workshop with Artist - Jess Scott

Join filmmaker/artist Jess Scott to think about the question 'where do you live?' at this collaborative workshop with Barnstaple Library and Studio KIND. 

Starting at Barnstaple Library for refreshments, Jess will chat about her work and what inspired her to become a filmmaker/artist. We will then start to think about where we live, and Jess will lead a photography exercise where we'll be taking photos of our local area as well as using photos of our homes and memories - please feel free to bring some with you. 

After lunch (please bring your own food) we'll head to Studio KIND where Jess will give a tour of her current exhibition, and we will be thinking more in-depth about where we 'live' - whether that's in our bodies, our homes, our communities, or somewhere else. We'll be using collage to create images from memory. This could be a self-portrait, a childhood home, or an abstract image. 

We will focus on how we can bring together different ideas to create an artwork that tells a story. 
The work is open to beginners with no experience of art. We will be thinking about what the starting point of art-making is, how we bring together different ideas, and what creativity feels like. 

Please bring a digital camera or smartphone in order to take photos.

Suitable for ages 16+
