Laurie Doctor - Speak to Me From Everywhere - Ongoing

The title of this class is a line from a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke. The poem says that there is a voice within you, within each person, that is not tied to place or circumstance. The voice within you exists everywhere. This phrase also suggests that the voice exists outside you, that help comes from asking. The reference to something outside oneself illuminates the paradox that each person, alone, has to find her or his own way, and yet no one is able to find their way alone. Having a daily contemplative practice of making— however short — is a way of finding your muse and rediscovering who you are. The intention of this class is for you to cultivate your particular work, the gift you have already been given. Here’s the basic structure of the class: - Five Lessons The class is comprised of five lessons, each of which explores our “near environment” through writing, using four aspects of landscape: scale, value, movement and pattern. - Lesson Videos There is a video for each lesson that includes a reflection and a demonstration of that day’s exercises. - Lesson Packets Each video is accompanied by a packet for you to print out and keep with you in your studio area. This is a self-paced course. You will be able to log in at any time and go at your own pace. You’ll have access to the materials for the lifetime of the course.
