The curatorial collective Call You in the Morning organises Worth a Thousand Words: Part II, a toolkit workshop for curators and art professionals who work independently across different media or as part of organisations.
In this workshop, the collective will explore and think through different tools to create accessibility around an art event, and the responsibility that falls on curators and institutions. They will experiment with visual descriptions, attempting to empower creatives to feel more comfortable in being part of the process of making artworks more accessible.
In this session, every participant will write visual descriptions for pieces of artwork, thinking through the nuances and challenges that come with writing about someone else’s work. The workshop will last up to two hours, aiming to create an environment of collaboration and conversation, exploring together how tools to optimise accessibility can be creatively generative in and of themselves.
