This three-part workshop with Lexi Arrietta will be fashioned after the artist's own practice in making work as a means to sit with, examine, and give voice to feelings of loss, trauma, longing, instability, and attachment. Lexi's focus is on using found objects, personal belongings, and a wide array of materials harvested in nature to create mixed media sculptures that speak to the wilderness of our emotions and innerworkings. The goal of this workshop is not necessarily for participants to walk away with a finished piece of work, but rather, to explore and develop their own emotive visual language—by way of memory, self-observation, personal symbolism, meaning-making, precious objects or materials, and communal dialogue. Tools and materials will be provided, but everyone is highly encouraged to bring anything and everything they feel called to use, play with, explore, or have before them as sources of insight or inspiration.
