Running out of time? Which one: solar, Gregorian, Piraha, Hopi, lunar, Buddhist, seasonal? We will work on creating calendars that play with notions of time and explore what it might be like to let go of a Western notion of future-focused time.
Ashley Cook is a queer, multidisciplinary artist and designer with a keen interest on how we perceive and notice the world through language and metaphors. She works with paper mechanics, charcoal, acrylic painting, block printing, or a combination of these mediums. These workshops focus on shifting perspectives and how we see the world through playing with alternate ways of seeing, mapping, and visualizing the world. When we free ourselves from “one way” of seeing, what possibilities open up for us and for the world? In these workshops you will explore using paper, paint, sketching and other paper-based techniques in a fun and supportive environment.
