Workshops

Tuuli has strong experience is facilitating workshops
on material making as well as more more abstract,
performative experiences. The latter deals with place,
perception, psychogeographical mapping and drifting.
The workshops have taken place in contexts of community
groups, art events and university education.

The key thought is to treat participants as artists
with equally valid perspectives and ways of finding
a way in the new environment that the workshop
provides.


   Examples:

 Can you see what I see?
 A workshop and performance where participants
 perform and make places perform with them.

The workshop is a  journey into experience of the
other. Together we try to see through the eyes of another
person. Let a stranger take you to their world of details around
us. The insignificant can open up  a universe of memories.

 A Brick Box project with students of Ernest Bevin
 College celebrating different identities through
 illustrating poems dealing with refugee experiences.

 The students gained confidence and expressed an incredible
 creative potential in the course of the shadow theatre

workshops that resulted in a performance at Tooting Market
as part of a community event.
