TALK DESCRIPTION

In this talk Sarah Pickstone will discuss the role of drawing within her art practice. Drawing is her first impulse when responding to a feeling, an idea or the mind’s eye image. Transforming these initial studies into larger paintings is the most exciting part of the process. Sarah will talk about using images from art history and the everyday, along with stories and ideas from literature to develop more personal imagery.

Guest Series Format: We will be joined by guests from different fields: art, ethnobotany, anatomy, and photography each of whom is committed to drawing. The format for the Guest Series will be for each guest to give a talk about how drawing relates to their own work and field, then at a later date they will lead a day long drawing workshop based on their practice.

Tuesday, 11 October
6:30-8pm
