SALA Open Studio - Paper-mâché Sculpture Demonstration
Advertisement
SALA Open Studio—Paper-mâché Sculpture Demonstration: 15-16 August, 11:30am to 2:30pm
Experience the slow, tactile art of papier-mâché through a live sculpture demonstration.
Step into a space where time softens and creation unfolds at its own rhythm. Watch as humble materials — paper, clay, and glue — transform under patient hands into sculptural forms that breathe with story and spirit. Each layer pressed and smoothed carries the quiet pulse of intention, echoing the Gond Indigenous visual language that inspires every curve, motif, and gesture.
During this live demonstration, you’ll see how forms rise from simple armatures, how textures build through repetition, and how colour brings life to each finished piece. The process celebrates slowness — the meditative rhythm of making, the tactile joy of shaping, and the intimacy of craft that connects artist and material.
You will also encounter pieces from Smriti Sutra, my ongoing body of work where each sculpture holds a story, a memory, or a moral. These works invite viewers to pause, reflect, and recognise echoes of their own experiences within the forms. Birds, turtles, owls, and human figures become carriers of quiet wisdom, shaped through papier‑mâché and guided by narrative traditions.
Come to my home studio, enjoy a cuppa, and immerse yourself in this world of handmade storytelling. See the collection, watch the demonstration unfold, and feel the calm pulse of creation. Let the textures of paper, the warmth of conversation, and the gentle unfolding of art remind you that beauty often lies in the simplest gestures—in the slow shaping of something meaningful by hand.
