Any
given space is measurable and limited, but the possibilities of expression within
that space are immeasurable and limit-less. This is the foundational basis of
our ‘Rendering Space’ workshop. We take
any given space, small or large - a room, a street, a building - and we
produce a variety of individual representations and expressions of it and from it. The workshop explores how students visually interact with
their immediate & familiar environment and express that limited space
within given time restraints. The workshop is developed for 12-20 students,
each closely negotiating the same space in a short allocated timeframe. On this
first, experimental workshop the space is the familiar environment of the
Studio/Classroom, the timeframe is 2 hrs.

The teaching process is delivered as follows: A short lecture about issues of space and its expression
- looking at how several artists have expressed the same space. This brief lecture
prompts ideas & approaches, which open up the notion of how many diverse
representations can be made within a very restricted environment. This is
followed by the allocation of a single room, building or a small compact
outdoor area. From within this room – this limited space - students are
encouraged to express, in their own diverse style, the environment itself through
the creation of three inter-connected images. While the workshop places physical,
spacial, time constraints and supposed creative limitations on the student, as
well as a degree of pressure to produce, it fully encourages them to rethink and
negotiate the space in a new visual way.
