The Joy of Letting Go: Randomness & Collaboration with Eric William Carroll
The Joy of Letting Go: Randomness & Collaboration with Eric William Carroll
January 25th - February 29th. Meets every Thursdays 7 pm - 9 pm ET via Zoom for 6-weeks.
Getting stuck in your head and spiraling about all the creative decisions one has to make in art can bring your practice to a standstill. This group is geared towards artists who would benefit from a little relief in the creative process–whether that be through collaboration or an injection of randomness. Together we’ll practice short exercises & shared governance by blurring the roles of artist, editor/curator and audience. Artists stuck in the middle of a project & those just looking for like-minded potential collaborators are encouraged to join.
Kinship uses a pay-what-you-can honor system with a minimum donation or $50. The average contribution for a six-week practice group is $125. Please give as generously as you can. If you cannot afford the minimum contribution of $50 please don't hesitate to request a scholarship.
Eric William Carroll’s work on photography, science, and nature explores the differences in how we experience, represent, and organize the world. Through his photographs, installations, and performances, Carroll creates visual and emotional connections that span enormous distances in space and time. At the heart of his practice is a genuine sense of curiosity that questions traditional binary relationships.
Carroll’s work has been shown widely and has been included in exhibitions at the New Orleans Museum of Art, Aperture Foundation, the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Pier 24 Photography, among others. Carroll has participated in residencies with the MacDowell Colony, Rayko Photo Center and the Blacklock Nature Sanctuary, and was the winner of the 2012 Baum Award for Emerging Photographers. Born and raised in the Midwest, Carroll currently lives in Asheville, North Carolina.
