WORKSHOP | REMY FAINT | Ornamental Impressions; engraving compositions and cross-cultural fragmentations.
Event description
We warmly invite you to join artist Remy Faint in the gallery for a clay-based workshop inspired by his current Project Space installation The Library and the Cave.
Led by Faint, the Ornamental Impressions workshop will get hands-on with processes such as ceramic engraving, relief-sculpting, embossing and calligraphic imagery. Participants will learn from the artist about his research into the the displaced Library Cave collection and how this has influenced his methodology of collaging disparate fragments.
Remy Faint is an emerging artist based on Gadigal land, Sydney. His practice is motivated by the desire to expand languages of painting by examining its global histories. While often exploring the potential of silk as a painting and sculptural device, he references objects and materials specific to his Chinese-Australian heritage.
Materials and refreshments are provided, and no prior experience with clay is required.
Free RSVP, all are welcome.
Faint's exhibition The Library and the Cave continues until July 23 alongside Things that are real: Alvaro Barrington X Dean Cross in our main exhibition space.
