Discover Sian Griffiths

Friday 31 August / 10am - 4pm / Free

A fun, creative, drop-in session, suitable for ages 4+ and their families.

These artist-led workshops provide you with an opportunity to contribute to a collaborative artwork, which will be completed by the end of the drop-in session. In the process you will enjoy finding out about an individual artist and their work.

Join Sian to create a truly collaborative installation that grows and interacts with the architecture of the space as the day progresses; a fun a lively large scale artwork that climbs up the wall and across the floor.

Sian Griffiths’ work engages with the vast language of sculpture through a specific interest in low value objects that are sourced from pound shops, stationers and charity shops. A process of transformation occurs in which the objects’ original functions are ignored in favour of their pure aesthetic qualities and how they can be presented as a creative statement. Sian’s playful pieces offer an insight into her own fantastical language, in which all her thinking is carried out through an obsessive relationship with their materiality. This is a process that is of upmost importance to the development of her practice.
