Silent Crits!!!!!

Hey guys,

So following up on Craig's idea of silent crits......which is (for anyone who wasn't there) where a group of people sit for a period of time with someone's work in silence, and write down anything that comes to mind. This could range from something as simple as how the work makes them feel, to poetry, to HARD CORE critique :) anyways whatever!

I think it's a really great idea as it takes away the pressure of talking on the spot about someone's work, + it allows space for so much more to be said, and in so many different ways/forms. I think we discussed that it would be anonymous as well which is kinda nice.

So........we thought we should get started on this! A really easy way of doing this would be to allocate a time each week (depending on how many participants we get) and to go around to people's studios, as the work is already set up and ready to go!!!!!!.....oooorrrrr we could look into getting the utility room or something similar if people wanted to set up their work in a clean separate space.

So who wnats to be involved????? Let me or Craig know and we will organise the 1st session!.... I'll post this on the blog tooooooo!

See youse :) x
