WORKSHOP: Somatic storytelling using found objects

Fabrica is a space where everyone can experience art. Through immersive exhibitions and commissions, we introduce visitors to the work of celebrated international and at the same time, we support and commission emerging artists, giving them the financial and creative support to make engaging and thought provoking work. This way, art is always here to surprise, challenge and inspire our communities.Cultural experiences at Fabrica are often immersive, shaped around our Grade II listed building. No prior knowledge of art is needed to step inside, and to engage, enjoy and respond. At Fabrica, our audiences can experience art in other unexpected ways:  through our ever-changing calendar of film screenings, talks, group discussions and community led events. And through a holistic programme of workshops where they might create sculptures, prints, drawings, textiles that supports learning and increases wellbeing. Our café and private venue hire give people another way to make art part of their everyday lives.To find out more about our programme please visit fabrica.org.uk, follow us on social media or sign up to rceive our email newsletters at https://tinyurl.com/yxt7oke.

Fabrica

A workshop with artists Carys Reilly and Beth Hopkins

Zoom login will be provided in your ticket confirmation email. We will be in touch ahead of the event to provide prep instructions.

Join artists <a href="https://outsidein.org.uk/galleries/carys-reilly/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Carys Reilly</a> and <a href="https://outsidein.org.uk/beth-hopkins/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Beth Hopkins</a> for a workshop on conveying somatic experiences through art. That is, how we can create objects to communicate our internal experiences or feelings. Inspired by Carys’ process of deconstructing and reassembling found objects, this workshop will give participants the opportunity to create small sculptures that can tell their stories. These can be as happy, sad, difficult, fun, personal or as universal as you choose. You’ll be able to learn about working instinctively with materials to tell stories, and how to find a way of creating that’s personal and accessible to you - no fine art training or education required. We will be working in a small group, and there is no pressure or expectation to share the experience you want to make work about, but you’re welcome to do so if you feel comfortable. All materials will be provided, but feel free to bring along any objects you’d like to incorporate into your sculptures. The workshop includes a tour of Carys’ work for <a href="https://www.fabrica.org.uk/strange-relations" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Strange Relations</a>, which is currently being exhibited at Fabrica. <ul><li>We recommend booking in advance for this event as places are limited.
