The Games We Play (Chris Francis)

About

WORKSHOP  DESCRIPTION 
From playground chalked-doodles to Surrealist-inspired parlour games, drawing and ‘play’ have long held close associations. But then, the games we play hold histories and agendas too - and drawings are rarely innocent or neutral.  Be it for procrastination or political subversion, personal expression or educational insights, join Artpedagogy’s Chris Francis for a day of playful collaboration, reflection and drawing-based word-play and mischief. Game on!

Wed, 1 November
10am-4pm (1 hour lunch break)

Location: Studio, 26 Exmouth Market, EC1 4QE

BIO
Chris Francis is an arts educator, illustrator and co-founder of ArtPedagogy and PhotoPedagogy, two popular online resources for artists, educators and students. Chris best summarises his creative practice as ‘serious mischief’ – an ongoing quest to unpick art and art education via thinking hard coupled with less predictable actions and collaborations, be it material-led play, automatic drawings, collaborative interventions, or throwing a timely spanner in the works.Website: www.artpedagogy.com
