Reading the Landscape

(A course for Masters of Fine Arts students in the writing program of the School of the Art Institute.) Break away from living inside your head and studio, and get out into the big wilds. Fascinating collisions of humans and nature serve as a spur to generating new work that may take the form of writing, visual art, video, or some other medium. Together as a class, we’ll take three field trips to urban natural areas; individually, you will select and execute your own excursions. Creating a field notebook with writings, drawing and other media is required.

Instructor: Jill Riddell. Fall, 2018.
