DrawNow! with Royal Drawing School’s Nell Brookfield in Voice of Space: UFOs and Paranormal Phenomena

Join us for a 3 hour drawing workshop presented in partnership with the Royal Drawing School’s visiting artist Nell Brookfield. Inspired by the current exhibition Voice of Space: UFOs and Paranormal Phenomena which looks at “the phenomenon of UFO sightings as a universal metaphor for contact between the known (the self, in many cases) and the unknown (the Other in any guise)."

In this workshop, teaching artist Nell Brookfield leads an interactive conversation and drawing activities that invite participants to challenge their usual patterns of observation. Nell writes – As children we approach the world anew, everything is open to interpretation and discovery. As adults, our ideas of the world around us become fixed. It’s increasingly hard to break free from our patterns of seeing and thinking. How can we begin to challenge our ways of seeing? How can we see ourselves as if for the first time?
