Join Breathing Fire, a Bristol-based African Caribbean Women’s theatre company, for an engaging workshop inspired by Spike Island’s exhibition Asmaa Jama with Gouled Ahmed: Except this time nothing returns from the ashes.
Using drama games and physical activities, the workshop focuses on the concept of storytelling through creative expression. Participants are invited to explore ideas of character and status through methods such as posing, and reflect about the importance of their own stories, as individuals and as a collective.
Suitable for all ages and abilities. No experience necessary.
I AM MAKING ART
These regular activity sessions are led by artists and visual practitioners. Visitors of all ages and abilities can try out new techniques and approaches to making art, from drawing and painting to collage, sculpture and animation. All materials are provided.
