Educational programme inspired by the Narrative 4 methodology for Orhan Pamuk's exhibition The Consolation of Objects
How much does narrative need illustration and image need a story? At DOX, we believe that a gallery like this, and the exhibition within it, is like a big box full of stories and all you have to do is choose. The programme draws inspirational material from the ambiguous yet poetic works of Orhan Pamuk.
Just as there is a hidden story behind every painting, the right painting can illuminate (illustrate) the narrative. And it is narrative and illustration that are the essential elements of the programme in which the mutual sharing of stories inspired by the Narrative 4 methodology develops empathy, fantasy, imagination, the ability to express oneself as well as to illustrate. Discover the artist inside you - come tell, create, narrate.
