What
On Tuesday 28 July, 10am–1pm, artist Alice Wilson will be leading a hands-on wood sculpture session at theCOLAB The Artist's Garden. You'll saw, drill and paint your own piece, then combine it with your group to build one large collaborative assemblage — inspired by SAVOY, a sculpture that lives at the heart of the garden.
Alice Wilson is a sculptor whose work uses the materials of construction — timber, paint, nails — not to build but to ask questions about home, place and belonging. SAVOY is a dense vertical forest of brightly coloured construction timbers with schematic outlines of dwellings thrust aloft at their tips — a work that dissolves material and architectural hierarchies, leaving plentiful evidence of each process as part of the meaning. In this workshop you'll work with the same instincts: cutting, drilling and assembling timber into forms that start as individual pieces and finish as one collective assemblage.
No experience needed. Just bring yourself and wear something you don't mind getting paint on.
Places are limited to 15 — please sign up soon.
The session is open to City Lions and Dream Arts members, and Westminster residents and students aged 13–18. It's completely free.
Get in touch if you have any questions.
