ArtTalks: The Moroccan

Jul 23, 2020Inspiring, Selected, Talks & Workshops

Artist Jess Stephens and I have been running Creativity Quest online since April 2020 – a fear-bashing, awe-inspiring, world-expanding series of artistic and cultural adventures”.

Here’s a clip from one of our Creativity Quest sessions, “Moroccan Red”. where, as part of a 90-minute live group workshop, we’re looking at, responding to and talking about a single contemporary Moroccan image – by photographer Leila Alaoui.

Leila took this and other photos in a portable photo studio and printed them life-size. They are stunning images and truly inspiring. Sadly, Leila was killed in 2016 in a terrorist attack. Her family have set up a foundation in her memory which you can find out more about here: https://universes.art/en/nafas/articles/2016/leila-alaoui
