Artist Swapna Namboodiri will share how the repetitive act of wrapping yarn forms the foundation of her latest collection of artworks, transforming simple fibres and everyday materials into richly textured contemporary artworks. Participants will then be guided through the same mindful process to create their own small abstract artwork to take home.

This workshop would be suitable even for complete beginners, and will be designed as a relaxing and rewarding creative experience, inviting participants to slow down, explore colour and texture, and enjoy making in the peaceful surroundings of Jurlique Farm.

Held as part of the Regeneration SALA Exhibition, guests will also have the opportunity to view the exhibition on-site, featuring works by Swapna alongside fellow artists Lorry Wedding-Marchioro and Sakthivel Eakambaranathan.

About the Artist

Swapna Namboodiri

Swapna’s art practice is inextricably intertwined with sustainability and is deeply rooted in the exploration of discarded materials and transforming them into meaningful sculptural artworks. Through the process of deconstruction and reassembly, she aims to challenge perceptions of value and waste, highlighting the beauty and potential of materials that have been overlooked or discarded by society. Her artworks are an expression of sustainability, creativity, and the constant evolution of form. By working with upcycled materials, she not only reduces waste but also celebrate the tactile and transformative nature of these objects. Each work is a dialogue between the past and present, inviting viewers to reflect on their relationship with the objects around them, as well as the impact of consumption and disposability in our world. Her artworks has been exhibited and collected globally, and commissioned by esteemed clients for site-specific installations that merge creativity with impact.
