Explore how to convey powerful Global Justice messages through metaphors and imagery using Photo Image Making & Stop Motion
Explore how to convey powerful Global Justice messages through metaphors and imagery using Photo Image Making & Stop Motion Animation.
Photography and Stop Motion allows us the unique opportunity to convey powerful metaphors and imagery, often in a way that the spoken word or written text cannot.
Over the course of the two days we will begin to analyse photography & stop motion techniques, present images, short animation clips and become more confident with the vocabulary used to articulate and highlight social injustices and inequality. As a group we will create photographic images, photomontage and short stop motion animation clips. At the core of the workshop will be human rights as they are experienced in the local community and in the wider community. We will draw inspiration from the world around us and this practical weekend workshop will capture, document and share our experiences through social media platforms.
ART///TRANSFORMATION///CITIZEN
Sheelagh Broderick & Declan MacGonagle
March 3rd
A day of inputs, explorations and conversations about the potential of the artist as a citizen contributing to change in the world.
Sheelagh Broderick with input from Declan MacGonagle
Sheelagh Broderick will lead this day of interaction exploring the practice of a range of socially engaged artists who are making a significant contribution to thinking critically about deep questions that challenge our world. She will introduce work of contemporary artists such as Tania Bruguera and Jonas Staal whose work is concerned with themes of power, control, propaganda and citizenship.
Declan McGonagle will input the day with reflections on the artist citizen and the potential of arts to nurture empathy.
“Citizenship can be thought of as the relational space where negotiable and transactional art processes provide mediated or unmediated experiences and also participation, through which empathy is created.”
CONNECT///IMAGINE///CREATE

March 4th & 5th
Connecting to imagine and create a better future for our world through meaningful dialogue: Who, what and how?
A two day tool box.
How does change and transformation come about? This workshop explores the HOW of how moments and spaces of change need to be set up. We will use the 2 days to experience formats of meaningful social encounters on eyelevel. We will look at tools and methods that allow for decision-making, generating input or finding common ground on a broad basis. But also looking at the I within the WE, the WE within the I. Based on techniques of art as well as “Art of Hosting”, dialogue circles and social presencing theatre/ Arawana Hayashi, we will make practical experiences with some of these approaches and the techniques.

With various artistic experiments and formats we will explore the nature of our interdependence and what every individual brings to the table. These 2 toolbox days offers an experimental format of approaching a human, societal or globally urgent topic. The days offer open space between workshop, practice, constructive dispute, action and re-action.
