Résumé

The author (Social Worker, Art Educator, Theatre Artist) discusses the creation and evolution of the Identity Writing workshop; a life writing exercise that helps students, artists, and teachers integrate their personal/political experiences of change into meaningful and authentic artistic expressions. Reflections stemming from the junctions between the author’s personal and professional lives provide compelling insights into moments of transformation through art-making. A simple writing activity is included for new, emerging, or established artists and creative teachers.
