Culture-Position-Emotion

OPEN’s sequel...

Come and share an afternoon of cut-paste-make in response to our prompt, culture-position-emotion. Together we will create collages in the form of film and physical patchworks. These will be displayed at OPEN’s forthcoming exhibition at the Hockney Gallery in May/June 2019.

This event develops OPEN’s theme of emotional positions, and we encourage attendees to explore ideas of emotion, story-telling and world views.

Materials will be provided on the day for the physical collage; film responses (max. 2 minutes) can be made on the day or submitted in advance to rca.thisisopen@gmail.com. A screening of the full footage will take place at the end of the day. 

Please interpret the prompt as you wish, with sensitivity to emotional positions.

Open to cross-College staff and all PGR.

No registration required.
