Family Takeover: Hand-made Folkore

Camden Art Centre

Arkwright Road, NW3 6DG

Free

Join artist Iga Koncka for a series of free hands-on family workshops looking at craft, folklore and making together.

In these sessions we will make creatures, scenarios and photographic sets rooted in Polish folkloric fantasies. We will use the garden as an art-making materials resource and play with everyday objects and transform them into magical sculptures and installations.

This season our Family Takeover workshop series will be led by artists exhibiting in Bloomberg New Contemporaries at Camden Art Centre.

These sessions are designed for adults and children working together, activities may be messy!

Sessions run from 11.15am-12.15pm, and 12.45-1.45pm.

The programme is supported by a Cultural Education and Learning Support Fund from Camden Council.

Born in Poland, and currently based in London, Iga Koncka is a feminist artist and thinker. She has a BA in Documentary Photography from the University of South Wales, and a MA in Contemporary Photography: Practices and Philosophies at Central Saint Martins. Her research interests mainly concern Poland: its political issues, family relations and archival practices. Performance art is at the heart of her artistic practice, alongside installation, sculpture, video and textile pieces. She uses critical play (alone or with others) to explore the notions of DIY culture, creative joy and experimental art making.
