Using easy and accessible writing exercises, we’ll reflect and transform images, feelings and inspiration from Triennial artist Rubiane Maia’s exhibition at kollectiv into words and phrases. Then we’ll weave these into individual and collective poems and stories exploring the themes of mothers, motherhood and Mother Earth. An accessible, inclusive workshop suitable for those wanting to explore creative writing as well as experienced writers.
