Family Studio Workshop: Dream Documents
From the event description:
Inspired by the exhibition "Guillermo Kuitca" on view in the South gallery, the June Family Studio Workshop will investigate the surreal spaces we envision in our dreams. Participants will document a dream or imagine a scene where there are no people, only abandoned objects. To produce a dream-like effect, participants will use oil pastels, washi tape and cotton swabs to create images on paper of ethereal spaces that are isolated and where objects may stand alone. The workshop will be led by Chloe Pang.
When: Sunday, June 30, noon-3 p.m.
Where: Hauser & Wirth, 901 E. Third St.
Price: Free
