What Can You Put On A Sores On A Dogs Lips

About the speakers: Patrick Jonas

1 - How would you describe yourself: Artist? Educator? etc.. Why?
- For two years I'm happy, I'm torn between my identity as a social / educator and my world as an artist and sculptor. I am finally connected ....

yes, but what identity?

I have wealth two cultures really live - social worker for almost 30 years (a DEFA) and an artistic practice since .... 35 this year.
I always tried - more or less successfully - to dialogue - a dialogue between these two cultures.
I've often been disappointed with myself and / or results!

- Why? because of my culture / education of my stance / I worked / questioned what materials / disciplines of art would be able to this - be it .....

- Why? because in my practice / posture artist (even with the wealth of many disciplines) I wished to bring the lightness, participate in a change of vision ....
... and the results were not up to what I saw of the work (other artists), my reading and my studies (many courses in more than 25 years) ...
and my project ... live on my art (ceramics - painting - Theatre - relaxation) while remaining within the helping people in need (whatever / issues).

- Then too, I am authorized to borrow the words contained in the complex rather vague and broad to be able to put my plan of life / my story unfold ...

... my story with an identity is finally in my measure

- creative social / creative social

- the way I left the comfort of social workers and collective agreements (I'm self-employed)

- As if I could not enlarge my / me fully realize from the institutions of health and social (or socio cultural!)

- the way I ' have won the freedom of thought (to create - to develop, ...) ... by agreeing to reduce my income by two!

- I am a cultural mediator - a health facilitator - an artist - a creative space as possible, but mostly ... I am totally connected ... and happy!

- I ask my question at all - the issue that definition! artist? educator?

- I am a creative social / creative one office - and since I no longer poses the question - because it does not arise now, I'm satisfied (see following day a little proud) of my work ... and assessments on the various workshops / or land I stand.

- 2 - What would you like to "pass" or "pass", etc.. at this workshop? And how do you intend to do it?
- To explain the dynamics of an improvisational theater workshop and theater forum

- How is that dynamic capacity (as a tool / Ombudsman) to create a space for dialogue for self and others.

- Allow the public attending the workshop to become in the time of the workshop (again!) The main actor of his life project (projects lives)

- Present and argue that these goals are realistic after - achievable - evaluation - working with the tool improvisational theater / theater forum

  • Daring experience through an artistic approach and bodily responses, strategies to better understand, articulate, develop its resources towards wellness.

- Indulging in the here and now

- Be attentive to their emotions, and create with

- Feeling exist through the eyes of others and progress towards a better self image

- Marvel's capacity for artistic expression and individual in a group

  • Put participants in positions of actors in their own life project

- Learn to better manage stress and emotions

- Give her desire to continue practicing this art ... first for itself ...

... and why not (after appropriate training) in a professional field.


- 3 - What forms of participation seem to you does it essential (or: what forms of participation do you expect) from people who will attend to your workshop?
- The dynamic is simple, the host must rely on the active - very active / reactive - participants in the workshop.

- The teaching is more and inter active / participatory -> it is totally focused on the current action -> with the public which is both (alternating) - audience and actor - reflection and action, etc. ...

- The workshop is a mix of short presentations on issues of this approach and little work

practices (skits) to try - validate - anchored by the practice (in a dynamic body / mind in action / cognition) contents of the presentations.

- 4 - What do you expect for yourself from this experience?

- Interactive + + +

- Dialogues speakers or workshop participants

- Continue to question (see confirm with the complicity of an audience of peers ( broadly defined) relevance some of my educational goals - therapeutic

5 - you think what you propose in this workshop is there: From Art? Education? Or perhaps both? And what do you think?

- art to yes totally

- from education to yes totally

but

- Development of self to yes of course

- care (broadly defined) yes to most often

- the therapeutic to yes again!

- I think this is possible (but not necessarily always be identified ...) in setting

work because of my workshops .... ... Throughout these This, I try each participant can find a (better) dialogue ...

  • with him - even
  • with other
  • with the world

  • and be (stay - becoming, ...) an actor - the main actor - his life project.
  • everyone comes (in studio) to its market - it is not known in advance either the menu or revenue, it comes with a hope - they come back for change its look.

... and it works! although sometimes I still do not know why! but since I took quite some time ... to waive all understand! and this position, in fact, is it from a position of art ... or education?
