Storyline: The Art of Personal Narrative
What is your story of the day? What tidbits of self do you share with people in conversation? In this course, our lived experiences are the primary source material for engaging visual narratives that connect with audiences on an emotional level. Demonstrations of artistic techniques will include figurative drawing, automatic writing, performative improvisation, storyboarding and video. Assignments are conceptual, and can be approached with a variety of artistic media. We will engage with practicing artists through virtual studio visits. Presentations of contemporary art, writings and film clips will be shared and discussed in class.
