About:
This workshop blends a broad overview of cognition and how the visual brain's capacity to generate meaning shifts from a practical approach aimed toward comprehension to a more contemplative approach in the face of visual ambiguity. The bulk of the workshop uses active drawing exercises to help participants recognize when that shift occurs in them.
