Lecture Presenter: Lynne Chapman
In October 2015, I began work on a fascinating commission, as Sketcher-in-Residence at The Morgan Centre for Research into Everyday Lives. Urban sketching is mostly about recording individual ‘snapshots’ of places and moments in time, but what would it be like to immerse yourself in one project for 10 months, capturing the life of a single institution? It was an exciting prospect.

In this lecture, I will be sharing some of the sketchbooks I have created and talking about the experience, as well as discussing ideas raised around empowerment of non-sketchers, sketchbook-as-narrative and the power of sketching as a research tool. The sketchbooks themselves will be exhibited during the symposium at nearby Z-arts and all delegates are invited to the launch event on Friday evening.
