Talk and draw: The Healing of the Man born Blind

Lecturer Katy Tarbard and artist educator Alex Bowie explore Duccio’s ‘The Healing of the Man born Blind’, currently featured in our exhibition ‘Siena: The Rise of Painting’.
 
First, listen to a brief talk, then respond by making your own work in this short, artist-led drawing session. Please have to hand a sharp pencil, paper, a pair of scissors and a rubber.
 
The session will take place online and will last about one hour.
Sometimes we might suggest using different drawing or craft materials, so, if you are able to, please keep a pencil case of different colours, a ruler and anything else you might like to experiment with.
 
This session will be accompanied by live speech-to-text transcription supported by Stagetext.
