This workshop delves into the powerful synergy between photography, writing, and mindfulness. A series of quick, unconventional prompts encourage students to use the making of photographs and the spontaneous writing of words in various forms to tap into their inner lives, where the creative process itself becomes a form of meditation. We also explore and discuss the work of photographers, writers, and artists whose work is directly influenced by contemplative practices. Feedback is highly individualized, and all levels are welcome. This course is limited to 10 students.
Course Level / Prerequisite: Open to all skill levels. Students ranging from beginner to experienced will be successful in classes that are Open to All Skill Levels.
Courses are subject to minimum enrollment. Please register early, within five days of the start-date, to reduce the likelihood of course cancellation and to ensure you receive all course-related materials in time to prepare for class.
