Family Studio Visit and Workshop: Intentional Bodies

See how the artist’s studio works and how it is a place to imagine and generate ideas. Then explore and experiment with making structures to expand your body with materials from home, taking inspiration from Lynda’s own work and the work of artist Rebecca Horn. Finish off making in the kitchen to see how it might feel and sound inside the body! This workshop will inspire you to see creative possibilities in your everyday world!
