This interactive workshop for families explores the fascinating interplay between sculpture and photography.
Engage in hands-on sculptural activities and photographic processes, learning how these two art forms can complement and enhance one another.
Inspired by our current exhibition Sculpture Photographed, we’ll look at how light, space, and perspective influence the perception of sculptural forms.
About the artist
This workshop is being run by Hannah Platt, a photographer and artist based in Leeds.
Shining a light on the joy and humour that sits at the core of Yorkshire and beyond, Hannah captures the history and change in northern cities and towns in a cheeky and charming way.
Since graduating from Leeds Arts University (BA (Hons) in Photography, 2014), she has since developed her photography style and book-making practice.
