Maud Davey - Master Class

Maude Davey presents a writing and practice workshop exploring writing what we otherwise wouldn’t have written, in saying what we otherwise wouldn’t have said. This Master Class will experiment and explore working with: disrupting patterns;interrupting flows;and then corrupting what seems like a whole thing, turning it onto the wrong path.Participants will work on the floor and at table. | Participants should bring writing implements (computer is fine), and comfortable clothes/shoes to move about in. (You don’t have to move if you don’t want to, watching is always an option).
