Mark Ware MFA is a multi-media artist, an Honorary Research Fellow at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School and a stroke survivor. During 1996 Mark had a severe stroke, an event that suddenly and abruptly altered every aspect of his life.
‘The Dog That Barked Like a Bird’ is an Arts Council England funded video composition created by Mark, based on his diaries of stroke recovery. It was described by Alan Bennett as, ‘an extraordinary piece of work’. This workshop will include a talk from Mark about how his stroke influences his art, a screening of the video composition and a Q&A session.
