Space is limited to 15 people. Must RSVP to attend.

Join us in the 2nd Floor Conference Room (207) at Bridwell Library on Monday morning with artist Sam Winston, who uses drawing, typography and artist books to explore embodied creative practice.  For millennia, artists have moved questions out of their heads and into their hands. Putting pen to page invites the hand (and body) into the thinking process, letting intuition in. In this workshop Winston will explore new ways of thinking about and engaging with language as well as introducing us to some of his own creative strategies. No prior artistic experience necessary, these workshops aim to be relaxed and playful.

Operating at the intersection of visual culture and literature he has exhibited his work in museums and galleries around the world. Tate Britain, the British Library, the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C and J. Paul Getty Museum, among others, hold his artist’s books in their permanent collections. Projects involving drawings, and installations have taken place at institutes such as The Victoria and Albert Museum, the Barbican Centre, and The Whitechapel Gallery. He is the co-author, with Oliver Jeffers, of the New York Times bestselling book A Child of Books.
