Art Studio 205sb - Topics: Studio Art Workshops-Sites of Belonging: Materials, Making, Place

This course is inspired by the vein of artistic practice that mines sites of belonging as starting points for making artwork. Sites of belonging are considered in an expansive sense, as physical locations but also spaces of created community and individual agency -- birthplaces, families born into or chosen, neighborhoods (actual and metaphorical) of connection. The course explores how characteristics of these sites, physical markers, rhythms of making, and memory directly or adjacently express these sites through the beautiful language of materials and tactility. S/U only. Enrollment limited to 12. (E)
