Deepening Creative Practice

Deepening Creative Practice is a programme where participants come together to experiment with the way they work with, design and make changes in organisations. It brings together the arts and social sciences to collectively and publicly work towards a final event that will showcase what participants have researched and learnt. The perspective and language of the arts plays a key role in the expression of these insights that emerge. Juliet is Programme Director.

Deepening Creative Practice #1
Spring 2020 - Spring 2021

Deepening Creative Practice with Organisations launched with its first community of practitioners in March 2020 and ran alongside the global pandemic.  It takes a co-created curatorial journey through four seasons towards a final exhibiting season whilst paying attention to parallel and system psychodynamic processes of material transformation and image-making. This page will document various aspects of the programme from artist led collaborations through to the fifth exhibiting season taking place in Spring/Summer 2021.

Stills below from the films show in more detail the range of marks and materials used.
