Arts Approaches to Conflict

Conflict is an emotive subject. This day course is about finding new ways to look at it. There will be a variety of practical art exercises to gain insights into different aspects of conflict, conflict resolution and mediation, including:

•    First reactions to conflict
•    Handling conflict non-verbally
•    Conflict arising in sharing space
•    Using drawing/painting as a step towards resolving conflicts
•    Working in pairs on others’ conflicts
Participants will acquire a greater awareness of different aspects of conflict, and how to work with conflict constructively.
