Workshops
My workshops have found their way into exhibition and festival programming, libraries and schools, and can be adapted for private and professional events. All can be facilitated trí Ghaeilge, or bilingually. ♡
Sweet Sculptures & Edible Geometry
There's something magic about discovering that the universe's building blocks can be made from jelly tots and cocktail sticks.
We begin with a brief intro to sacred geometry and the platonic solids, the elemental shapes that make up the world around us. Starting with simple cubes and pyramids, we build more complex structures, then let your imagination take over. Previous workshops have produced amazing kinetic feats of engineering and gorgeous collaborative pieces. Eating your art at the end is entirely optional.
A great one for adults to tap back into their innate creativity, and easy for families to adapt at home. Suitable for all ages.
Juicy Chewy Crunchy: Making Glass Mini-Sculptures
Learn the basics of glass cutting, as well as some fun, low-tech ways to manipulate it. We’ll engrave, scratch, crack, glue, smash, smush, and sandwich glass, combining it with mixed media to make many mini sculptures!
This workshop can be geared towards creativity resurrection for adults and teens over the course of an afternoon, or adapted for professional artists with an established practice.
