Regaining Ownership

Feeling Enabled to Take Control

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been battling with how I can take ownership over my work and my ideas. As a child I always felt I had ownership of what I drew and what I made. During secondary school and GCSE and A level art, at times it felt like the work I was making didn’t always belong to me. I’d like to share some of my thoughts on ‘ownership,’ and some of the steps I’ve taken to help me explore how I can better nurture a sense of ownership and autonomy.
