Fritha Jenkins

In this workshop artist Fritha Jenkins will experiment with a neurodivergent approach to creating and workshopping in the digital realm. Participants will enter into a Zoom session mid-flow – bring an apple if you can, and a drink with some ice in it (or a cuppa if you’d prefer) and we’ll see where things take us. Something of a journey; with apples, dancing, rock stilettos, glitter stones, and bath ice en-route, this experiential and performative space aims to allow for conversations and connections between participants to unravel and unfold. Improvisation, spontaneity, movement, comfort, mess, awkwardness, and non-linear storytelling are all welcome in this exploration of how such a space might feel and be.

When participants arrive into the Zoom session things will already be happening and there may be music or sound playing. You can choose whether to have video on or off and can also use the chat box and should feel free to join in and participate in any way you choose, including just being present. If you can, please bring an apple and a drink with ice in it for the purpose of participating in a shared sensory experience. To get the most from the experience everyone will be asked to put Zoom onto gallery view and participants will be asked to remain muted and unmute/remute themselves as necessary. If you would like support with using Zoom please let us know.
