JUNE 14, 2014 11am – 1pm Mount Pleasant Community Centre | 1 Kingsway FREE | No registration required
Join artist Amanda Lye to explore the Surrealist technique of Exquisite Corpse that explores the mystique of accident! Exquisite Corpse is based on an old parlour game, played by several people, each of whom draw one part of the body on a sheet of paper, fold the paper to conceal part of it, and pass it on to the next player for their contribution. Enjoy the end result of a wacky creature like no other!
Participants of all ages and experience are welcome.
Amanda Lye lives in East Vancouver and recently joined a jewellery studio in the Mount Pleasant neighbourhood. She has a BFA from NSCAD University and she also attended Langara and Emily Carr. In the past she has programmed Art in the Park workshops with children and she can be found most weekends at Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Centre. She also enjoys wax sculpting, intaglio printmaking, and drawing.
