On Saturday 24th May, we will be hosting a FREE creating an amulet using natural materials workshop and an exhibition tour of Alaria by the artist Miriam Austin from 11am - 12.15pm. Please sign up if you would like to hear from one of the artists in the exhibition and get crafty in the gallery.
Inspired by the themes of our relationship with nature explored in the exhibition, attendees (aged 7 - 15 and family members) will get to create personalised amulets or talismans using sculptural techniques. Spaces are limited.
Alaria brings together new work by Eiko Soga, Esther Teichmann, and Miriam Austin, each offering sensual and imaginative engagements with landscapes shaped by water: island, swamp, and fen. The succession of seasons, the growth of a foetus, the skin of an eel, the overhang of a branch, and the play of light on water – these are some of the gestures that bind the artworks together and might also tempt us away from the destructive binaries of human/nonhuman, natural/artificial.
The exhibition runs from the 28th April to the 24th May 2025.
Booking for the workshop and gallery is essential via the Eventbrite link HERE.
