Digestif

by Maryse Fernandes

“The world had changed almost overnight. And with the new world came new tools, and Cropsy wanted none of it. She did what many of us will do when avoiding something we dread, which is finding any reason not to do it.”

Maryse Fernandes was one of five participants in Fresh Meat’s first ever paid online training program offered in October 2020. Participants were paid a professional fee to participate in a series of training workshops designed to help build a sustainable artistic practice in Ottawa. At the close of the program, we invited them to reflect on what they had learned, and what it meant for their own artistic journey, and create a digital offering for our community. Each piece is as unique as the artist who created it: some made short films, some made slide shows, while others channeled their thoughts into writing or podcasts.

You can watch Maryse’s offering below.
