Join 2B Or Not 2B Collective for a bespoke series of art classes inspired by nature and diverse bodies in Kew’s iconic Temperate House. Learn key skills and techniques in life drawing and fashion illustration, immersed in botanical surroundings and accompanied by curated music.

There will be guidance for anyone who feels stuck, nervous or uninspired.

Life drawing workshop focused on ESEA (East and South East Asian) bodies, drawing inspiration from seasonal plants.

*Please note that life models will take part in the sessions, and they will pose partially naked.

Tutors: Wing Kei and Kelly Tran

Life drawing group that champions ESEA (East and South-East Asian) representation in bodily expression. Wing Kei Hoang is a tattoo artist who specialises in large-scale, body-flowing designs. Her interest in body art began 5 years ago with life drawing - through which she took a deep interest in the intersection between nudity, body image, cultural heritage, and identity. Wing Kei is actively involved with the life drawing community as an artist, life model, and host, and finds great joy in connecting with herself and others alike.
