Fantastic fridge magnets with Ursula Larin

Join Deeply Unserious artist Ursula Larin in this ridiculous fridge magnet workshop. Inspired by Larin’s humorous artworks, participants will endeavour to create sculptural fridge magnets that are as absurd and impractical as possible.

Manipulate materials to create your outlandish magnet. Rather than just a means to stick your artwork on the fridge door, these magnets will be an artwork in their own right.

About the artist:

Ursula Larin uses sculpture, video, photography and installation to reinterpret small, poignant moments from her everyday experience. Her sculptures either draw inspiration from, or closely replicate the peculiar details from these moments through an assemblage of accessible scrap, craft and building materials and an amateur, do-it-yourself skillset. These sculptures function as allegories that use humour, parody, and a childlike playfulness to explore existential quandaries around the absurd, awkward, confusing and disappointing aspects of the human experience.

This activity is suitable for children and teenagers aged 8 - 16 years.

Redcliffe Art Gallery is open from Tuesday to Saturday, 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM.
