About

Learn what it means to become a true psychogeographer by taking a 'drift' around Firstsite.

Join Jordan in making quick and playful sketches around the urban environment, before returning inside to expand the drawings into ambitious and imaginative works of art.

Basic materials will be provided for the workshop but please feel to bring your own.

This workshop is suitable for ages 16+.

Buffet lunch included with vegan and vegetarian options available. Any dietary requirements, please include in your booking.

Artist Bio:
Jordan Cook (b.1995) is an artist and art educator who grew up in Harlow, Essex. He is a graduate from The Royal Drawing School whose work draws upon the ever-changing landscapes of urban environments.

For Cook, the stripped back nature of charcoal onto paper is the most immediate way of responding to the world around him, as the ease with which it can be erased and re-drawn allows him to move with his living subject matter.
