Open Studio: Artistic Reflections
December 21, 2024 | 10:30 am–3:00 pm
Discover fresh opportunities for artistic expression every weekend in December at Open Studio. Explore how artists use light, reflection, and shadow. Collaborate or craft your own artwork to take home. Each week will introduce new ideas and creative challenges!
This week, we’ll take inspiration from Olafur Eliasson’s Your oceanic feeling to create our own suspended sculptures. Join us and Boolean Girl to use LED lights and circuits to play with reflections of light and color!
Meet in the Art School on the Lower Level.
Do this at home! Design your own glittering mosaic of geometric shapes inspired by artist Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian. Instructions here.
