"Concept Aware: Elements of Creative Practice"
J. Sybylla Smith (T&L)
Friday, March 11 - 1:00PM to 1:45PM
Summerlin A
This lecture focuses on the dynamic elements within the creative process that develop an idea into a concept and an image into a style, a project or a body of work.
Presented is a unique outline of eight practices utilized by artists of all mediums to strengthen the expression of their meaning and message in a concrete form. By exploring content and analyzing the structure within existing bodies of work participants will identify essential elements of artistic decision-making. This paradigm can be employed by individual photographers and as a teaching tool in assisting students to develop a visual language.
