Join artist and researcher Renata Pękowska in the Gallery to explore line drawing and mark making as traces and the records of time.
This event is free, booking essential as spaces are limited.
Visual artist and researcher Renata Pękowska will host a drawing session in the Gallery. The session aims to explore drawing lines and other marks as traces and the record of time, our experience of it, and generating reflections of its subjectivity. We will be drawing in the Gallery space, using boards, the gallery floor, and other surfaces. All materials will be provided.
Renata Pękowska is a visual artist and Irish Research Council Scholar PhD researcher. Her background includes architectural studies, craft design, critical theory (NCAD), and UX/UI design (TU Dublin). Her current research project considers exhibition practices as sites of attention care in the context of attention economies of online media platforms.
This adult workshop is suitable for all levels of skill, no drawing experience is necessary.
Event location information: The workshop will take place in the street-facing gallery space at Temple Bar Gallery + Studios, with access to a semi-accessible bathroom. For further access information, please contact TBG+S Learning + Public Engagement Curator Órla Goodwin.
