interdisciplinary arts
(Tea) Party
Format: In-person
Type: Creative Workshop
Where: A Block Theatre, Quantum Leap Australia, Gorman Arts Centre, Braddon
Welcome to the second annual Interdisciplinary Arts (tea)Party!
In this 2 hour workshop queer author, multi-disciplinary artist Emma Batchelor will share the creative process behind the development of her new novel Bloomwaves.
Inspired by recent encounters with queer artists making powerfully personal work, often within a collective, Bloomwaves is both an artistic inquiry and a celebration of community. It seeks to generate new forms of fiction that emerge not only from the self but from networks of embodied, intergenerational exchange.
Emma is very excited to be joined by some of the creative collaborators in the project who together will demonstrate the interdisciplinary movement practices drawn on in the novel writing process so far.
Presented for SpringOUT and The Bold Festival in partnership with MARION and Quantum Leap Australia with support from the LGBTIAQ+ Connections Fund (ACT Government).
This event is FREE to attend, please RSVP to help with organising catering and seating.
