issue 12: Tonja Torgerson

Issue 12's major theme is "creative adventure". Obviously a broad theme and open to interpretation, a creative adventure can be as extensive as a trip to a foreign land, embarking on a new area of study or simply looking at your immediate surroundings in a new way.

Artist Tonja Torgerson's creative adventure was an artist's residency on the Fogo Islands. I receive her email newsletters and this is how I found out about her creative adventure. I asked her to write a recap about the experience. You can read the full article in the current issue and browse her blog to read her posts from the residency.
