Keychains from bouncy castles with Elien de Keyser
Make your own keychains and pouches from reclaimed bouncy castles and truck tarpaulins! Together with Eilen de Keyser we will explore new colour combinations, shapes, and functions through play and experimentation.
The workshop will inspire you to think differently about materials you wouldn’t normally consider for re-use. Everything can turn into something!
Elien de Keyser is a Belgian architect, artist, and founder of Studio Elser. Working between architecture, art, and textiles, she explores colour, texture, and material as ways of expressing experiences, emotions, and memories.Sustainability is central to her practice, and she often works with reclaimed materials, giving them new meaning and new forms.
Make Your Own Animation & Kinetic Creation with Yuvia Maini
Explore the magic of movement by creating your own animation and kinetic artwork. In this workshop, you will learn the basics of animation and experiment with different ways of bringing images to life. Together, we will build a zoetrope which you can take home after the workshop. We will also explore analog animation techniques and create short, playful “analog gifs” while discovering how still images can transform into movement.
