About this event
How do we understand the meaning of care? What would it mean to put care at the centre of our artistic practices? In our communities and collective spaces?
This workshop invites mad, Deaf, and disabled artists to come together to discuss, debate, and develop these meanings. We will build from the ground up our understanding of a community of care and its role in our art and practice.
