My role is to help students identify and define the contours of their process so that their work emerges from an intuitive, personal and meaningful source. We do this through dialogue about the images on display and one’s intentions in making them. In bridging the gap between intention and image - whether single or multiple - the fluency of one's visual expression will increase.
