The Artist as Witness: A Creative Statement Workshop

College of Fine Arts
The Artist as Witness: A Creative Statement Workshop
 
Tuesday, November 17, 4:30-5:30 p.m.
 
 
Join Emily Robyn Clark (FSU MFA, ’23) for an interactive workshop exploring the artist’s role as witness and the art of crafting a compelling creative statement. Drawing inspiration from the writings of James Baldwin and Adrienne Rich, participants will reflect on their unique ways of seeing the world and how their work engages with the artists, pioneers, and creative traditions that came before them. Through guided free writing and discussion, students will explore their artistic influences, creative practice, and intentions while developing the language to articulate their own creative vision for graduate school applications, portfolios, and professional opportunities.
