What might a modern shrine look like? During this course, Jon will guide you through a highly personal process, where you might choose to work with clay figures, explore mould-making, make impressions of natural and found objects, write letters and poems, draw or fold paper.

The individual ‘shrine’ that you create will become a small installation and perhaps even a performance. Your world will evolve into part of our wider world - created and inspired by your own experiences and creative processes - a collective memento. This is an online arts course.

Art Forms: Mixed-media, illustration, installation, clay, written and spoken word, collage and assemblage, digital and analogue image making.
