Join artist and researcher Renata Pękowska for this drawing session presented in association with Architectural Association of Ireland. During the session we will consider drawing and mark making processes as visual descriptions of spatial experience, describing sensory presences and how we move through and position ourselves in relation to our surroundings. Bring your own notebook and drawing tools of preference. Session for adults, suitable for all skill levels.
Renata Pękowska is a visual artist and researcher based in Dublin. She is currently a PhD Researcher at the School of Media, TU Dublin.
Her background includes architectural studies, BDes in craft design (NCAD), MA in critical theory and curating (NCAD), MA in UI and UX Design (TU Dublin).
Her PhD project is funded by the Irish Research Council. The project considers multimodal exhibition practices as sites of attention care, in the context of the attention economy of online platforms. It interrogates discursive potential of sites of presence and co-presence, generating sociable togetherness or hybrid togetherness through liveness and embodiment. The expanded forms of outreach and exhibition design practices are considered in the context of three ecologies: individual, social and environmental.
