Are you a choreographer who wants feedback on your newest dance? A writer who needs a regular meeting to help keep you motivated to write? If you’re an independent artist, no matter your art form, participating in a Fieldwork workshop can give you support to grow your work by: providing feedback, offering a solid goal, helping you find language to describe your work, and supplying a venue to showcase (informally) what you’ve created.
The Fieldwork method originated in New York over 25 years ago, and CORE has been offering Fieldwork workshops for the Houston arts community since 1993. The workshops will provide support, structure, and community to help artists immerse themselves fully in their creative work. The feedback method reveals how each piece is perceived by others and provides detailed information that helps artists hone their vision. By focusing on what’s happening in the work and how those choices shape the work, Fieldwork supports autonomy and authorship of each artist.
The Spring Fieldwork session will be facilitated by dance maker, teacher and director of Frame Dance, Lydia Hance.
