SUMMARY:SABG's Summer Art Day: a creative writing workshop
DESCRIPTION:This two-hour writing workshop with Dr Roxani Krystalli, lecturer in the School of International Relations at St Andrews, will be held during the second weekend of light art at the St Andrews Botanic Garden and will invite participants to engage with the senses and through encounters with art, beauty, flourishing, light, and loss.    The workshop will include prompts for reflection and writing, opportunities to share with other participants, close reading of key nature writing texts to inspire future writing, and questions to take home for further development. The workshop is open to writers at all levels, including beginners. Participants are not required to have a work-in-progress to attend.    Roxani is an academic, peacebuilder and storyteller. The central question to her work is: what sustains life in the wake of loss? For over a decade, she has worked as a professional in the fields of humanitarian action, peacebuilding and transitional justice. She remains engaged in this work alongside current pursuits as a feminist academic, researcher and teacher at St Andrews. She is also a writer and storyteller, interested in the themes of memory, attention, place and care.    This week our focus shifts towards nature and art, the organic and the digital and Studio Lemercier, our artists-in-residence, present their light installation Prairie. By illuminating live plants, the installation culminates in an enchanting experience that explores new imaginaries and perspectives on nature and art. Similar themes are addressed by Dan Drage's sculptural works.    This workshop will involve some light movement around the St Andrews Botanic Garden, so we encourage participants to read the garden's access statement and to get in touch if there are any specific access needs. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sabgs-summer-art-day-a-creative-writing-workshop-tickets-936549513807?aff=oddtdtcreator
