About this Event:
SAW Friday Night Comics Workshop - Drawing Health with Georgia Webber
Friday February 11th, 2022 @ 7PM EST
Georgia Webber is a comics artist, editor, and facilitator living in southern Ontario. She is entirely occupied by the intersection of health and art, making music, comics, and facilitating courses from this point of fascination.
Georgia is best known for her debut graphic memoir, Dumb: Living Without a Voice (Fantagraphics 2018), the chronicle of her severe vocal injury and sustained vocal condition which causes her pain from using her voice. This difficult experience lead her to work as a Cranial Sacral Therapist, a meditation facilitator, and as an improvising musician, blending elements of healthcare, body awareness and creative expression within constraints. She has extended her love of the voice into the community with a project called MAW Vocal Arts. MAW hosts a vocal arts showcase event every few months in Toronto, Ontario, as well as a regular online practice sessions called Breathing Music where people can explore breath through deep listening, movement, meditation and sounding practices.
