Presents a Professional-Development Workshop for
Artists at Oregon College of Art and Craft
Portland,
OR, August 21, 2012—The College Art Association (CAA), in partnership
with Oregon College of Art and Craft (OCAC), will present its next
National Professional-Development Workshop for Artists on Saturday,
October 6, 2012. The one-day event, called “Hybrid Careers,” will
explore in separate sessions the four steps of the creative endeavor:
“Seeking,” “Solving,” “Making,” and “Reflecting.”
“Hybrid
Careers” will take place on Saturday, October 6, from 8:15 AM to 12:00
NOON and again from 1:00 to 4:00 PM. There will be a lunch break from
12:00 PM to 1:00 PM, and an open-studio reception for all participants
for networking and sharing from 4:00 to 5:00 PM. The
sessions take place at the Jean Vollum Drawing, Painting, and
Photography Building on the OCAC campus at 8245 Southwest Barnes Road,
Portland, OR 97225. The workshop is $35. Each of the four sessions will
be presented once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Workshop
registrants must choose two sessions for the day.
The
workshop will begin at 8:15 AM with check-in and a complimentary
continental breakfast. The sessions start at 9:00 AM. “Seeking,” led by
Katy Asher, an artist and alumna of Portland State University, and Carl
Diehl, an artist and an instructor at Pacific Northwest College of Art,
will focus on means of sparking and expanding on flickers of
inspiration. In “Solving,” participants will actively engage in
determining theories or hypotheses of how to solve problems, guided by
Susanna Hohmann, a professor in OCAC’s graduate program in applied craft
and design and a designer at Terrazign, and Carly Mick, also of
Terrazign. “Making,” led by Jake Sorenson, a sculptor and OCAC alumnus,
and Brett Binford, co-owner of Mudsharks Studio, will explore the
process and evolution of the conceptual object. Finally, Kate
Bingaman-Burt, an artist, designer, and assistant professor at Portland
State University, and Jeremy Pelley of the Official Manufacturing
Company (OMFGCO) will lead “Reflecting,” which will encourage
participants to reach a greater understanding of their likes and
dislikes. From this knowledge, they can then learn to focus on projects
that they can really believe in.
