MAKE: Creating Tactile Shapes led by Rebecca Sainsot-Reynolds

Draw shapely worlds and make tactile objects together!

During this workshop we will create, make and test a series of touchable, wall mountable decorative shapes for Turf Projects next exhibition, ‘Squidgy World’!

We will start with drawing prompts and exquisite-corpse with paper and pencils, and move through to play with size and scale, working with felt, glue and cutting tools to make tactile shapes and panels.

WORKSHOP CODE:

Turf aims to be a space where all are welcomed & respected. We ask all attendees to align with this spirit when booking and support us in creating a welcoming & collaborative atmosphere together. We ask that everyone is;

  • Kind and respectful in our language and behaviour towards others. Turf is a space which is anti racism, sexism, homophobia and ableism.
  • Considerate of others’ time; allowing others room to speak & engage.
  • Respectful of the space itself as belonging to many people, treating the space & objects with care.
  • Attend wherever possible: In 2023, around 30% of people booking free tickets didn’t turn up! Our free tickets are limited and in high demand. Every person who doesn’t turn up means someone else can’t attend, so please let us know if you can’t make it to free up a space. If you don’t attend twice or more without letting us know, you may be restricted from booking again.
