Photoperformance and Documentary Photography linked to poetry as a creative dynamic
Artist, poet and performer V. Nicola Martinez will aim to develop and implement a theoretical and practical workshop on the performing and visual arts with an inclusive focus. An opportunity to exchange knowledge and creative dynamics that strengthen learning processes. As she herself writes: “I believe that performative or action-inspired photography is inclusive and can be a positive creative stimulus for any student”. And again, “It is about establishing interrelationships between different elements and actions that apparently have nothing in common”.
Students who wish to take an active part and not just be auditors will have to bring some objects and devices with them. They can work in groups and, depending on their preferences, work with performance, photography, fanzine editing, but also modify and work on photographs, design and compose with texts, intervene on objects, etc. Even in the performative proposal, there is a sense of the absurd that is in a certain sense close to humour and at the same time to creativity.
Student materials: 1 object that can interact with their clothing and/or hairstyle; phone or photographic device; 1 poem. Laptop or tablet to work on.
