What Can Art Do? Explore Environmental Activism: 13-19 year olds
Thu 11 April 2019
Kettle's Yard House and Gallery
Join us for an afternoon workshop inspired by Oscar Murillo’s work and International Extinction Rebellion Day. This workshop is an opportunity for young people to be empowered to express their ideas and views.
Work with artist Hilary Cox-Condron to explore how making art can spark, influence and inform conversations that change the world we live in. Whether you march with your artwork held high, share it on social media or put it in your bedroom, this will be an opportunity to be part of the fight for climate justice!
Participants will gain as much from the creative making skills as they will from the critical creative discussions they will have, that will develop their confidence in visual arts language.
Using a variety of materials, work as a group to create a collective piece that expresses your views and opinions. This final piece will include skills used by artist Oscar Murillo including mark-making, painting and collage using text and recycled objects. Please feel free to bring packaging, photographs, maps or images you would like to incorporate
