Workshop, Day 2at GSA

The second day, Wednesday March 7th, Karen led the workshop together with Kimberley and Edwin.

The students had been told to send in by mail "found sentences" for this session; text from newspapers, songs, books etc. The sentences where put together in a long list and printed out.

The participating students then got one and one strip of paper with an identical sentence on, and told to draw a drawing based on the sentence in 3 minutes. Then they got a new sentence to base a drawing on, and a new one, and a new one... This resulted in hundreds of drawings.

The students were then divided into groups, discussing the finished drawings, reorganizing them, and working with them as a group to make something together.

The end result was many very different ways to solve the assignment: we got a book, a seies of bigger drawings that summarized the groups smaller drawings, an illustrated poem (recited) etc
