SUMMARY:Creative Peer Meet-Up with Olga Jurgenson  & Idit Nathan
DESCRIPTION:Feeling stuck working on your own? Missing creative conversation\, shared thinking\, or simply being in a room (even a virtual one) with people who get it? \nJoin artists Olga Jurgenson and Idit Nathan for a relaxed and welcoming peer mentoring introductory session as part of Get a Room – space for creatives to come together\, spark new ideas\, and collaborate. Book a free place. \nOlga and Idit have both been part of a long-standing peer mentoring group and know first-hand how valuable it can be to have a space for reflection\, support\, accountability\, and creative exchange. This session is an invitation to come together with other artists and creatives\, meet like-minded people\, and explore what a peer-led support group could look like. \nWhether you’re looking for connection\, fresh perspective\, encouragement\, or just a space to think out loud with others\, this session is for you. \nTogether\, Olga and Idit will introduce some of the guiding principles of peer mentoring and help create a space for open conversation\, curiosity\, and creative solidarity. The hope is that this will support the formation of a new group that can continue meeting independently in the future. \nAn additional follow-up session will also be shaped around the needs of the group. \nThis session is free to attend. To book your space\, fill in the form here. \nAbout Get a Room\nGet a Room is all about making space for connection\, conversation\, and creative collaboration. It’s for artists and creative folks who want to think out loud together\, share early ideas\, and build something meaningful with others. These are the kinds of spaces that are often missing in our cities and across the country: spaces where people can come together to share\, reflect\, and explore ideas in a supportive\, private setting. This initiative supports the formation and development of artist- and creative-led groups built on kinship\, curiosity\, and solidarity. Groups where people can come together to talk about what’s on their minds\, swap experiences\, and maybe even dream up something new. \nAbout the artists \nIdit Nathan\nIdit is a Cambridge based conceptual artist\, her work includes interactive installations\, live events\, games\, audio visual works\, walks and artists’ books where play operates as a productively provocative space to challenge accepted understandings. Using optics\, scale and perspective participants respond to contemporary dilemmas both as actors with free will and actors in an historical and cultural context. Her artworks have been been exhibited internationally and are held in private and public collections. Idit has taught\, lectured and mentored privately and at art schools across the UK and until 2020 was associate lecturer at Central St. Martin’s College (University of the Arts London)\, where she completed an arts practice PhD titled Art of Play in Zones of Conflict – the Case of Israel Palestine in 2018. \nOlga Jürgenson\nBorn in Siberia\, raised in Estonia\, currently based in the UK\, Olga Jürgenson works and exhibits internationally. Her inherited familial nomadism\, combined with an inquisitive mind filtered through a feminist lens\, has led her to explore humanity’s search for utopian Paradise. Whether collaborating with the world’s first AI love doll Samantha\, researching television detective stories while questioning the role of God\, or painting portraits of robots disguised as celebrities\, Olga is drawn to the complexity of human nature. Her current work involves communicating with the spirits of her ancestors\, rummaging through their archives as they gladly share with her their Earthly experiences in carpentry\, crocheting and surviving bloodthirsty dictators. Olga has also participated in significant group exhibitions globally.
