In our first session of ‘Expressive Art and Culture’ we discussed the topic of ‘Evocative Objects’. We all brought in a personal evocative object and explained to the class what special meaning it has to us. An ‘Evocative Object’ is something that evokes or tends to “evoke an especially emotional response”. My evocative object were two poetry cards given to me by my parents that remind me of all the little sayings they use when I’m going through a particularly difficult or stressful time. I carry these around in my purse everyday.
