SUMMARY:Gather & Create @ Vulcan Works
DESCRIPTION:Being Creative When You Don’t Feel Like It: An Exploration of Mental Health and the Creative Process \nJoin us for an engaging and compassionate event that explores the complex connection between mental health and creativity. When inspiration feels distant or motivation runs low\, how can we continue to create meaningfully—and without self-judgment? \nThis session will take a thoughtful look at the emotional and psychological challenges that often accompany creative work. Through a blend of open discussion and practical tools\, we’ll talk about the nature of creativity\, understand how this relates to mental well-being\, and learn how to use this understanding to find renewed energy for your craft\, even on the tough days. \nAs part of this experience\, attendees will also participate in guided creative exercises designed to gently spark inspiration and reconnect you with your imagination. These low-pressure\, supportive activities are accessible to all—whether you’re a seasoned artist or simply looking for a new way to express yourself. \nThis event is ideal for creatives of all backgrounds—writers\, visual artists\, performers\, and makers—who are looking for ways to stay connected to their practice while honouring their mental health. \n\nJulys host is Andrew Bond – Andrew has been a multi-disciplinary digital creative for over 10 years and now works as a voice actor and creative producer of The Kingdom Sleeps podcast

SUMMARY:Architectural Tissues: Forms and Potentials for Movement – Workshop with Adam Moore
DESCRIPTION:Artist Adam Moore will present a workshop that combines space\, body\, movement and art. He will be leading a 3 hr session in which participants are invited to explore the relationship between interior and exterior spaces\, the emotions that bodies and places hold\, and ways by which transitions from stillness to movement\, from silence to talking\, can open up new ways of engaging with the spaces we inhabit. The workshop will begin with an exercise that combines mindful awareness and the movement of bodies inside the temporary gallery space at Vulcan Works\, proceeded by a group walk through Beckets Park. The session will end with a drawing and painting exercise\, in which participants will be invited to express their experiences. \nAdam Moore is a British-St. Lucian artist from east London explores themes of multiculturalism\, unity and resilience at the intersectional discourses and embodied explorations of sustainability. He is part of international networks including Theatrum Mundi and Diaspore Projects. He co-designed and facilitated the syllabus for Camden Art Centre’s 2021-22 Youth Collective with Madeline Pledge. Recent awards and residencies include the a-n 2022 Bursary and the Jerwood UNITe 2022 artist studio residency at g39\, Cardiff.
