'I believe that every socially engaged work begins with a personal story. The story that we don’t tell but that drives us on, deep inside.
Social practice invites a constant traveling between being, making and reflecting with others. It is a process of co-actions ( (Gergen, K, – Relational Being, 2009) which validates our emotional world and moves it out there into an expression, to become of-this-world. The stories collide, and in the magic of the clash, new knowledge emerge from our differences.' Laurence Dube-Rushby

‘The French Artist’‘The French artist is the part of me that is on a quest. A quest to reach deeper understanding in an attempt to put a wrong right. To revisit the history of how society has developed and reached such discrepancy between logic of the heart, of human relationship, and the logic of institutional priorities; a gap reaching the edge of the chaos which may become our learning zone.’
This Saturday 20 October, you are invited to participate on social media as we tweet, stream, and post content from ‘Social Practice: Truth or Dare?’ a peer-to-peer learning event for artists with a socially engaged art practice whether than means activism, social service, art in education. You may think of your practice as socially engaged through its audience participation or have been influenced by artists/writers who are socially engaged.
Over the weekend we will begin building a ‘map’ of social art practice, which we hope will be inspiring, informative, and collective experience. Please use the hashtag #truthdareart and tag us at @casartists On Facebook . Twitter . Instagram Share with us
