Facilitated by Seattle-based installation artist, Mandy Greer, this weeklong intensive workshop gives High School-aged artists the opportunity to investigate the topics of eco art, collaboration, environmental installation, Craftivism, the DIY craft movement, and temporary public art.
During the week of August 8-14, 2010, working around the clock, the young artists form small collectives, learn a variety of fiber-based techniques grounded in contemporary art practices, and create a series of Environmental Installations on the wilderness grounds of Fort Worden State Park, at Centrum, Port Townsend, Wa.
This blog documents the process of creating these installations, so these young artists can share their work with those beyond the grounds of the park.
