How to embrace the unexpected
Trying something fresh means taking risks, and facing the possibility it may not go as planned. So how can you keep pushing the boundaries, and embrace the unforeseen in your work?
At The Space we’re proud to support artists and people working in arts and culture organisations as they experiment and innovate digitally.
Whether creating rich experiences, or seeking audiences online, trying something fresh means taking risks, and facing the possibility it may not go as planned. So how can you keep pushing the boundaries, and embrace the unforeseen in your work?
We’ll cover:
- Stories of artists and creatives dealing with the unexpected
- Ways to build resilience and flexibility into your practice
- Practical ideas of how to problem solve when things go wrong
