Artlab 6: Emptiness

Join visual artist and writer Meg Kaczyk in exploring the paradox of form and formlessness. In visual art we might think of emptiness as negative space. In writing, as a pause within description. But what is really there? During this workshop, Meg leads participants in writing and visual arts exercises that play with insightful questions – what is the relationship of solidity to spaciousness? How does form meet its edges? When does nothing become something? Creative expression can help us move into new understandings through tactile experience. All levels welcome.


Meg Kaczyk's work is informed by the natural world, contemporary poetry, meditation practice and life’s transitions — consciously uncovering joy, grief, gratitude and presence found in everyday life. Paintings and narrative from her book, Notes from Next to the Bed: A Caregiving Love Story in Words & Pictures, will be exhibited at Bainbridge Island Museum of Art opening March 2027. Meg teaches creative process workshops at Northwind Art School and other regional locations.
