The act of writing, of framing thoughts and ideas within language, is integral to the creative practice. It is one thing to have an idea, it is another thing to say it, let alone write it.
In this light, we’re organising a series of student gatherings, workshops and lectures where students from all corners of the Rietveld & Sandberg community can meet and investigate different approaches to the use of text (in their practice).
The goal of this platform is to articulate the voice of the artist/designer through a communal practice and space. We aim to open up the often insular practice of working with text; to share with others and cultivate a space for collectivity and feedback. A body of many different voices germinating in discourse.
