Masterclass: Fine Art - Talking with Skin and Bones

Letterforms are one of the fundamental building blocks of visual language, literally language made visual.  Using the body as a sculptural device, students will explore the alphabet through a three-dimensional and time-based lens, creating experimental letterforms through the body. Students will use photography to produce an expressive and experimental series of work using our state-of-the-art photography studio and equipment. The session will begin with a short contextual talk, showing artists who have used their bodies or traces of the figure to create a unique coded language, pulling from historical and contemporary examples. Photographs of the unique outcomes created will be shared with participants and collated into a short film.
