Come create a 3D abstract landscape in this multi-dimensional drawing and construction workshop. Inspired by Tadao Ando’s MPavillion 10 and TarraWarra Museum of Art’s Modernist collection, participants will use a simple blank canvas made from recycled cardboard to engage in a series of fun exercises. The exercises will encourage them to think outside the box and observe their environment through an abstract lens to create dynamic, colourful, and textured drawings. Then, they will deconstruct these drawings and reassemble the pieces into striking sculptures that capture nature and command space. Sculptures can be taken home or added to a growing collaborative landscape.
This workshop is recommended for children aged between 8-14. Children under the age of 8 can participate, but will require support from their parents. Please note: parents are not required to book a ticket.
Kids must be accompanied at all times by a guardian. Please ensure you arrive on time.
