Dragonfly installation
July 13th was the annual
Zart open day which brought
many teachers to our new
Customer Service Centre.
Hands on demonstrations on
a variety of mixed media
helped contribute to the
extraordinary Dragonfly
Installation in the foyer of
the centre. The installation is
made up of one large
dragonfly made with Silk
Paper and Acetate Wings.
Teachers were able to make
some silk paper on the day,
to add to the body of this
large construction. The body
measures approximately 1
metre long with the
wingspan of 1.5 m.
The dragonfly hangs in the
foyer of the Customer
Service Centre surrounded
by baby dragonflies made
with a number of different
materials.
Workshops have moved to a new premises
All workshops are now
conducted upstairs in the
new workshop room directly
off from the student gallery,
in Factory 4, the Customer
Service Centre.
Tea and coffee are now
available for all visitors to
the gallery and workshops in
our self service kitchen.
