Power objects from the Anthropocene
Humans have been producing art objects from found materials for millennia, and the current human period, the Anthropocene, differs only in the availability and abundance of man-made materials at the artist’s disposal.
To acknowledge Plastic Free July, this one day workshop for adults will focus on the potential of re-use and creative thinking in your art-making. Learn how every day objects can be employed, manipulated and reimagined as a sculptural material.
You will be guided in the safe use of both hand and power tools as well as learning simple techniques for secure connection of a variety of materials including, wood, plastic, metal, fabric, as well as found and recycled objects.
Your sculpture may be figurative or abstract, small, medium, large, freestanding or wall hung. The possibilities are endless!
