Join us for a clay making workshop with artists Tina Mukhergee and Niambi Murray where children and families will have an opportunity to explore how ideas can be realized through the medium of sculpture.
Workshop Structure
Opportunity to engage in modality of choice: Artists will explain how to work with clay in a variety of forms for play and imaginative ideas.
Anatomy of Artistic Translation
Participants have the opportunity to explore their own modality of artistic expression through stages of translation and creation.
- Life in Creation: Always a collaboration between the children and their peers
- Mini Sculpture Making: Translate terra cotta clay into mini sculpture creations
This workshop is part of the 2023 Voices of Multiplicity (VoM) Artist Residency Program led by the RU guest curator Ayelet Danielle Aldouby with co-creators and artists Kelly Huang, Niambi A. Murray, Andrea Orellana and Xavier Robles-Armas. From May through October, the team will work from the KODA/RU house on Governors Island where they will implement monthly artistic workshops which are accessible and free for all.
