We had the pleasure of curating four weeks of Art Workshops with featured artists from the âCuratorâs Eyeâ at @olympiagalleryja last January curated by Kevarney K. R
When I imagined these gatherings I knew I wanted to focus on co-creative approaches to the processes and concepts. A huge part of this meant working with pairs of artists to design the sessions.
