    GROUP STUDY: Making as Thinking, Thinking through Writing

    Artmaking is a form of knowledge-creation. Creative process is a way of thinking, being and knowing. So many artists struggle with the written word, especially “academic writing.” Whether you are someone who struggles with writing or embraces it, this group study will offer a peer writing support group in which we can explore how to write from the ground of holistic, embodied, transformative energy and authentic voice that we bring to making art. This CoLLab (Collaborative Learning Laboratory) is designed for artists who know in our bones that making is how we come to understand the world, and how we dialogue with or “co-respond” to the world. Even in the context of an MFA, a construction of settler universities, nonverbal artistic expression is often marginalized or made invisible. Shaping artistic ideas and translating them into the language that is understood and accepted by academic institutions (or any settler institutions, for that matter) is a powerful skill. The even greater challenge is how to translate our ideas without compromising or eroding the integrity and authenticity of who we are. That takes practice and a supportive community of co-llaborators. Join this community of co-makers, co-thinkers, co-writers who will be made up of MFAIA students, faculty, and alumni.

    Tuesday, February 16 • 1:00pm – 2:15pm PST

    GROUP STUDY How Dialogue Informs Performance Creation
    Can our performance process foster mycorrhizal growth, creating channels that persist beyond the process itself and connect us in a web of relations? How can we approach the creation of performance as an interdependent act, seeking to decolonize the framework that glorifies the artist as independent, and instead become visionary in our reliance on each other? The purpose of this study group is to focus on dialogue as fuel for the creation of performance, seeking to explore ways we artists can strengthen, support and give to each other’s performance development through a series of meaningful small dialogues.

    Participants will commit to holding at least four individual dialogues throughout the semester, and posting recordings to a shared study-group online platform. At the end of the semester, each participant will submit a summary of their reflections to the group forum, and we will meet to share our insights in a closing circle.

    This is an experiment in using the dialogic process on a small scale to understand how it affects performance work, and how it can be used to facilitate performance creation. This group study will offer participants an example for decentralizing their work, and fostering interdependence, with an eye to decolonizing praxis.

    Hathor Vergotis with Devora Neumark, PhD (Faculty Lead)
