Join us at October Gallery for a dynamic Creative Professional Development session that places material process at the centre of creative practice. Grounded in the vibrant, sensory legacy of Aubrey Williams, this hands-on workshop explores how painting, sound, movement and texture open up new ways to connect with the world.
Williams’ work merges deep ecological awareness, and lived experience of land, soil, and memory. We will be exploring how physical gesture, intuitive mark-making, and rhythmic layering, transforms paint and colour into language. Through making, movement, discussion, and collaborative reflection, this workshop invites participants to explore:
How materials carry memory, culture, and resistanceThe expressive power of colour, rhythm, and gestureHow to build material-led practice in education, arts and community settingsThe role of process in storytelling, activism, and embodied learning
Whether you're an educator, artist, youth worker or community practitioner, this session offers space to experiment, reflect, and reconnect with creative process.
