A bit of a different workshop this week with Motiv8 Gosport π«π¨
A few months back, Vicky from Motiv8 contacted us to ask if we were available to take part in their Sense of Home project, where young people explore their home through their senses.
After telling Mark Kellett Art about the enquiry, he didnβt say yes, no, or ask any questions... he said βI want soundβ ππ His two passions in the world combined - music & art!!
Mark replicated a workshop he has taught many times at A-level during his teaching career - exploring how music and sound can influence how you experience the world - how you feel, your movements, and your creativity!
The workshop started using acrylic markers of various shapes & sizes, and explored how listening to different genres of music influenced colour choice & mark making. They then moved onto the paints using different materials to drag, scrape & scratch the paint to create texture - whilst listening to the sounds of Gosport - seagulls, the sea, a bustling market etc. It was amazing to see everyone so engaged in the workshop and produce some really creative outcomes influenced by their home town π‘
It was a pleasure to be involved in the project and so much fun to run a slightly different style of workshop than Pop-up Spray Studios is used to!
Thank you for having us! π
