These school holidays, escape the heat and join the Artist studios for a fun and experimental hand-drawn animation activity – make a flip-book! Inspired by William Kentridge’s exhibition, I am Not Me, the horse is not mine, participants will enjoy a guided tour of the William Kentridge exhibition, followed by a hands-on creative drawing activity led by artist Rosie Gordon. Flip-book animation uses multiple drawings with slight differences between each one to give the effect of change and motion when the stacked pages are flipped. All materials are provided, and morning tea is included.
One of the most distinctive voices in contemporary art, South African artist William Kentridge is best known for his drawings, prints and animations. He uses his drawings to make films and often works in pencil and charcoal. His artworks explore connections between art, history and memory, and how images repeat across time and between diverse cultures.
This workshop is facilitated by artist Rosie Gordon.
