The Centre of the Real: The Artist’s House
‘Our house is our corner in the world. It is our first universe, a real cosmos in every sense of the word’
- Gaston Bachelard, The Poetics of Space, 1969
This Masterclass considers the domestic space, a space in which many of us develop our art practice and tune in to online study.
Course Lead Josie Cockram will invite you to look at – and listen to – the spaces within your house: from the front door to the kitchen table. Together we’ll consider how this sphere can frame our view of the world elsewhere, and how the home-as-workspace can be generative for artists.
‘Without a home at the centre of the real, one was not only shelter-less but also lost in nonbeing, in unreality’
John Berger, and our faces, my hear, brief as photos, 1984.
