An intimate, quietly revolutionary Guide to using art to process, understand, and collaborate with Your feelings, from the co-author of My Body, My Home .
The process is the work..
The outcome of Your art-making is arbitrary.
Feel Something, Make Something is not about making perfectly polished works of art.
To Feel Something and Make Something is both an invitation to take a breath and an opportunity to shift Your perspective.
You may choose to sustain Your feeling, to channel it into Your work, or to shift it completely.
This act of creation can be a form of release, documentation, ritual, conversation, or disruption.
To help kickstart Your creative process, Metz offers tutorials on zine-making (complete with a pull-out DIY zine to keep in Your wallet), drawing, bodymapping, mindmapping, self-portraiture, and writing personal manifestos.
Caitlin Metz believes that making art--whether it\'s a detailed scribble on a crumpled receipt or a 100-day series of photos--gives Your feelings a physical form and provides space to observe them from a distance.
What if, instead of hiding from Your emotions, you collaborated with them? Feel Something, Make Something is a Guide to experimental, creative self-expression and reflection.
Many of us were taught to avoid, suppress, or run away from intense feelings like grief, anger, and sadness.
Understanding our Emotions is a lifelong process.
