Stories of Women ~ with Morimda
Event Information
Description
The power of saying 'No'
From being an extremely shy person, it was through life modelling that Morimda emerged – found out who she was and was able to express that to other people.
For more information about Morimda, see this blog post about her journey.
At this Stories of Women event there is also the chance to try life modelling yourself, or you may come to draw and/or listen or join in the conversation. During the second half there is a discussion about the body politics of life modelling and related matters. There is guidance for new models - no experience necessary, and some drawing materials are provided - again no experience necessary.
Life modelling and drawing are a really good way to address body image issues, as well as gaining confidence and broadening our experience by stepping out of our comfort zones.
The event is open to all women and is a safe space for sensitive discussion about a range of topical and delicate issues. Please bring an open heart and mind! Also if you have a spare robe (and want to model) that's good too.
At the end there is time to look at the drawings, if you want to show.
Payment is on a sliding scale, you decide. Paying on the door is fine (but it's great if you buy in advance too!) This site is now charging to have multiple ticket options so if you would like to pay less than £10, please bring cash, any amount appreciated thank you.
