Holiday Workshop: Building Beings with Wire & Light

Get creative at our free holiday workshop for all ages, inspired by Kira Freije’s exhibition Unspeak the Chorus, on at Modern Art Oxford from 23 May–16 August.

Using metal wire, fabric and light, you’ll create your own sculpture of a person or animal while exploring how artists turn ideas into finished artworks. Taking inspiration from the way Kira Freije makes her work, you’ll experiment with bending wire to draw in space, adding fabric to create texture and shape, and using lighting to cast dramatic shadows.

Kira’s exhibition is filled with life-size figures made from twisted metal, layered fabric and carefully placed light. In this workshop, you’ll have the chance to try out these techniques for yourself and create your own character, creature or scene.
