Events

Workshop:?"If I was YOU:??Selfying the other"

Monday March 11, 18:00-20:00
Friday, March 15, 10:00-17:00
(workshop will run all day but students must be there between 15:00-17:00)

These days, we often turn the cellphone camera on ourselves, and we consume the images others portray of themselves. As a non-conventional artist with intersectional identities, I propose a workshop to challenge these habits of self-portraiture and our assumptions about representing ourselves and others. This workshop will attempt to explore these questions through working in pairs to create portraits of other people, across different mediums (Zines, video, writing, painting, collage, digital, sound, collaboration/curating) according to the practices of the participants involved. During the 2 day workshop, you will make a portrait of your collaborator (abstract, surrealist, glitchy, etc…) within the enabling constraints of our approach. We will explore artmaking, collaboration, listening, intersectionality, respect, normativity, deconstruction etc. Through the?art making process, we will learn about negotiation, power dynamics, management of ego, communication and archiving.

Open to students working with different practices.?Please email ara.osterweil [at] mcgill.ca to sign up to participate. You can visit the artist’s website .
