Working with the public, other artists or my students is engaging and collaborative. Inducing creativity without intimidation or pressure, communicating within an almost forgotten matrix of formal aesthetics and emotions, and searching for the poetry in humble, everyday objects are my ways to reconnect any willing individual to their artistic, often dormant, facilities.
I lead adults and children classes, as well as workshops (group and private) and community art projects. I am taking part in school residencies, and use my open studio as an opportunity to engage public in creative activities. As an instructor and educator I believe in a social and ethical mission of art, and innate human capacities for creative expression.
My teaching concept is based on four disciplines of art education: production (skills and techniques), criticism and structure (elements and principles of art and design), aesthetics and art history.
