Ready to learn a new creative skill and take home a unique keepsake?
Join workshop instructor Anthony Psaila (Medusa Has Been) in this queer tama workshop, where you’ll explore the notion of votives, how and why some cultures use them and what that might mean for us personally – an expression of prayer, hope, gratitude, fear or desire.
You’ll look at some traditional tama images and then create your own unique votive through a queer lens. You don’t need to be queer or have a background in design to create your own personalised tama.
Using a simple line drawing as an image template and then playing with textured mark making, the workshop aims to introduce you to an embossing craft that’s easy to do but has the added significance of your own bespoke message.
Venue: London Museum Docklands, No 1, West India Quay, Hertsmere Rd, London E14 4AL
