Pulling at Threads
Hands-on workshop exploring creative uses of thread with artist Emma Whiting, part of the Dispersion programme (18+).
A gentle exploratory workshop inspired by the creative possibilities of thread with Emma Whiting (MA Fine Art: Printmaking).
For artist Emma Whiting (MA Fine Art: Printmaking), thread has been a recurring motif in recent research as a material and a metaphor.
In this workshop, you are invited to explore the creative possibilities of thread, including a glimpse at related mythology and contemporary art practice.
Please note: Participants must be aged 18+. To let us know about any access requirements please email Anna Bunting-Branch ([email protected])
This event is part of Dispersion , a celebration of practice-led research across a vibrant spectrum of material and energetic forms, hosted by MA Fine Art Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London, in the South London Gallery's Clore Studio.
Dispersion recalls the diffusion of ideas, the dissolving of boundaries, and the interactive forces that shape art practice; not oriented towards a singular object or event but engaged in an ongoing process of transformation. At the end of fifteen months of concentrated research, the final gathering of this MA Fine Art cohort stages an experiment in dispersion via publication, performance, and participation.
Featuring a daily public programme of performances, screenings, talks and workshops, alongside artist books, essays, and zines. With work by graduating students from MA Fine Art: Computational Arts, MA Fine Art: Drawing, MA Fine Art: Painting, MA Fine Art: Printmaking, MA Fine Art: Photography, and MA Fine Art: Sculpture.
You are welcome to drop in any time to explore the work on display. Events are free to attend and open to all (18+). Explore the rest of the Dispersion programme here.
