Get Creative: Experimental Animation Workshop using OHP Projectors with Rob Lye

Join us in person on Saturday 2nd May from 11am - 12.30pm for a fun and hands-on session exploring experimental animation using classic OHP projectors. This workshop, running in the Gerald Moore Gallery, is recommended for children aged between 9 - 13 years old.

Come mess around with light, shadow, and movement to make something truly unique. Rob Lye will guide you through playful techniques that bring your ideas to life in unexpected ways. Don’t miss this chance to see animation from a fresh perspective!

This workshop is in conjunction with Rob Lye's solo exhibition titled Fog Machine which runs from 23 April - 16 May 2026 in the Gerald Moore Gallery.

Rob Lye is a London-based artist, filmmaker and sound artist working across moving image, spatial sound, sculpture and installation. His practice explores the intersection of landscape, industry and material memory, often focusing on environments shaped by extraction and labour. Through field recording, spatial audio and film, he examines how ecological, industrial and personal histories become embedded within place.

He studied Sculpture at the Royal College of Art and has exhibited, screened and performed internationally, including at Café Oto, Tate Britain, the ICA, Whitechapel Gallery and Modern Art Oxford. He is currently Artist-in-Residence at Eltham College and the Gerald Moore Gallery, and recently received an Arts Council England DYCP grant to develop new ambisonic film work in the Arctic in spring 2026.
