Exploring our icy world from the sky and space
Enjoy a visit to our new exhibition, which brings together art and science to ask: what do you see when you look at ice from above?
Words and language are embedded in Howardena Pindell’s artworks, and in works across the collection at Kettle’s Yard.
Join artist Aaran Sian for a half term workshop inspired by Kettle’s Yard and Howardena Pindell: A New Language. In this workshop we will explore how we can use the punk technique of collage to ‘rip’, ‘cut’ and ‘overlay’ an individual response and embed a layered reading into Kettle’s Yard, through your own identity, experiences, thoughts and feelings.
This workshop is for 14 – 17 year olds.
£15, booking required, lunch not included
