We will experiment with making sounds using our bodies, and responding to each other using objects and surfaces that surround us. This workshop will be conducted face2face in Kelly’s Garden at Salamanca Arts Centre

ZOOM LEARNING EXCHANGE RESOURCE: Developing online creative encounters

The Virtually There project in Ireland

The Virtually There project in Ireland


Welcome

Protocols

Acknowledgment of country


This explored the ‘now’ of our online world in response to COVID-19 as a tool for Artists to creatively adapt practice to facilitate online creative encounters with community.

mug2020.png

We heard from Julie Forrester speaking live from Ireland about her experience with the ‘Virtually There’ project with Kelly Drummond Cawthon (Second Echo Ensemble) and Sheree Martin (The Little Red Art Shed) sharing their own early stage explorations into ZOOM and Blue Jeans as online platform options.

This is the 45 minute Zoom recording of Julie’s presentation with Q&A at the end.

Thanks for inviting me to talk to the ArTELIER artists it was fun to share that stuff in another direction on the other side of the world!

I wish I could have stayed up for the rest but needed to grab my zzzzz for the next day, would love to see some avatars, so will keep checking in to your wonderful resource.

Here’s some info on the apps:
Stopmotion Studio Pro is the app - it is available for iphone, android and apple and pc desktops though much better on phone than desktop, it’s useful to have both - get it here https://www.cateater.com/
The other software we used has all expired pretty much since I got it on the iPads (2016!), sketches pro is still there and works well, autodesk sketchbook is cool for a bit of fairly limited motion stuff but fun effects, I am sure there are other great apps out there now, its just about but any current image compositing stuff will work in combination too with stopmotion studio. There are also other great stopmotion apps - really I think its a personal choice as much as anything, as with much software I have found that what works best for you may not be at all intuitive for me.. so out there and go a hunting - also kids are great teachers so if you are not techy (like me) they will show you how to do it.
In the classroom we used Collaborate and the Interactive Whiteboard, standard in UK schools very CLUNKY but had its own charm as we got to know it, most of the animation conversations with kids took place on this interface
— Julie - April 2020

Julie is a Cork based artist, her work engages with random and rhythmic encounters with the everyday, where outcomes take the form of drawing, sculptural, photographic, moving image or other manifestations. Julie graduated in sculpture from the Slade School of Art, London, has qualifications in Community Arts Practice and Multi Media and holds an MA in Art Process from Crawford College of Art And Design. Passionate about the transformative power of creative practices, Julie has been working on residency in community settings since the 1990s with Cork Community Art Link, Triskel Arts Centre, Tigh Fili, Ogra Chorcai, Backwater Artists’ Group. and Kids’ Own Publishing Partnership. She is currently an education panelist with The Crafts Council of Ireland and The Crawford Art Gallery and works out of her studio in Cork City.

Virtually There is a long-term project that places artists in schools via virtual technology. Running since 2007, the project supports artists to connect from their studios with teachers and children in the classroom, engaging in contemporary art practice that stems from the artists’ own studio practice. 

At present, eight schools across Northern Ireland are working with eight artists from North and South and further afield. 

The project has its own dedicated website, www.virtuallythere.org.uk, where you can closely follow its progress. 


Here are some images from her work - she will speak for about 30 minutes about her work with the project and discuss the challenges and potential of working remotely.

MULTI SESSION PROJECT: ArtPlay Artists Exchange - part one

MULTI SESSION PROJECT: ArtPlay Artists Exchange - part one

The ArTELIER ArtPlay Exchange Project brings together socially engaged artists from Tasmania and Victoria. ArtPlay, one of Australia’s premiere cultural centres for children and families employs a wide range of artists to deliver an annual program of creative encounters. There is much in common and much practice to share between the artists engaged in this practice at ArtPlay and within the ArTELIER program.

Ten ArTELIER artists were paid an honorarium to attend a weekend of activities at ArtPlay in Melbourne in April 2019. The intention was to find out more about each other’s practice, critically deliver some programming with the ArtPlay program and attend a professional development day run by Drop Bear Theatre. The extended weekend included visits to Footscray Community Arts Centre, a presentation about materiality by Kelly Boucher and workshop/creative development looking at gender stereotyping in children’s toys.

 The program, below, shows how ArTELIER artists delivered three creative encounters over the weekend- each a different artform and age group. We were luckily able to offer a specific workshop to children from The Venny in Melbourne.

Bruny deep dive feedback:

Goodness gracious, what an intense and deep dive we had! I’m still spinning and I have to share with you that on Tuesday I caught the 6.30am ferry back and drove to work as “Dr Very Much” in the hospital. I arrived so tired and stunned to be back in the ‘real world’. Luckily my clown partner had also been at Nayri Niari and was in a similar, yet more grounded state and offered an intention to create time in our work for me to arrive and check into each situation. It’s hard to achieve this as a performer in a ‘tamed’ environment such as a hospital, but on Tuesday our practice was wholistic and generous, open and vulnerable. And my reports to the Humour Foundation were full of very special shared transformations with families and staff.

I don’t know if we can evaluate or measure the effects of what we do together as a group diving deeply into reflection, but when we take our vulnerability into communities and offer an expansive possibility for connection and sharing and multiply this by all the artists involved in ArTELIER you see this is indeed a burgeoning social change. I feel very fortunate to be part of ArTELIER.

I hope you are both travelling ok after the week.

Kindest regards,

Artist
