ATELIER INDEX PRESENTS:

RE-SEARCH

Liv is hosting a workshop|course|experiment exploring the act of looking in the digital age; sharing how visual and thematic research can be carried out and understood when navigating, Pinterest, museum collections, news feeds, shop windows, our bookshelves, our grandmother’s attics and the woods. 

Drawing upon everyday technology and culture, as well as lessons from educational and design thinking (with just touch of philosophy!), we’ll explore|question|generatethemes including Research Gestures, Lyrical Looking and Spectral Thinking, and Loops, Filters, Bubbles and Frames.

Practically, we will identify tools and questions that will help to capture, organise and consider our visual collections. This might be in relation to design work and project briefs, or considering our own personal searches, acts of looking and exploring the visual world around us.

At the end of the workshop|course|experiment you may have brought into focus your Visual Quest and have some tangible methods for developing your personal archive and carrying out ‘research’ in relation to a brief or topic. Be you a student, artist, writer, designer, or someone who is just curious, theworkshop|course|experiment should be both helpful and inspirational.
