Free Flow Workshop – Paste a Trace! Linocut Printing
Courtyard
1.12 09.12
11:00 - 20:00
In this workshop, participants will be introduced to the basics of linocut carving and printing techniques. Participants will learn how to identify what makes an ideal image for a linocut artwork. They can either use their own design or use the readymade ones for printing. Starting with tracing the selected pattern or design and transferring them onto the lino surface, they can then carve the lino block with linocut blades to create a positive image. The image will be inked using a roller with block printing ink and printed onto paper or fabric.
Participants will also learn an easy way to print using a spoon and soap. They can take home the lino block to do more printing at home! The workshop will focus on mono or duo-colour print. Participants may choose to print the same design in multicolours.
Free admission on a first-come, first-served basis. No registration is required.

Kintsugi: The Art of Repair Using Lacquer and Gold
Verandah S3A, Staunton Block A
Date & Time
6.12 ( Thu )19:00 - 21:00
Online Registration
Accidents happen despite the best of care. When something with sentimental value is damaged, you would want to have it restored. Kintsugi is a beautiful way to address our errors.
Kintsugi is the traditional method of repairing ceramics, wood-work and glass using lacquer and gold or silver. It is an ongoing learning process that requires constant practice of “trial and error”.
Through repairing and showing off the imperfections, the item is imbued with new value, meaning and aesthetics. And the practice itself is both healing and meditative.
***The final product can be picked up from studio after 2 weeks for cooling

Date & Time
6.12 ( Thu )19:30 - 21:00

Handcrafted jewellery always evokes feeling of warmth and uniqueness that mass-produced items can never replicate.
The Floral Branch Bangle is one of the most adored signature creations from Pamycarie. Participants will design the bangle with the floral ornaments provided. They will then be guided to assemble the flowers and beads onto the bangle with silver threads. A fine UV coating needs to be applied on the bangle which will be placed under the UV light to set before it is ready to be picked up.
The workshop will take approximately 90 minutes.
