Otherworldly creatures

Camden Art Centre
London
2023

Maymana Arefin was invited as an Artist-in-Residence to design and lead a series of programme of workshops alongside Tamara Henderson’s exhibition, Green in The Grooves (2023). 

Inspired by the exhibition and Tamara Henderson’s The Canberran Characters (2021), these sessions encouraged families and children to transform found objects and scavenged materials, such as: clay, twigs, fabric, cardboard and yarn into sculptures. Through play and experimentation, we explored more-than-human worlds, folklore and fantasy. We dismantled and (re)constructed our imaginings of the otherworldly creatures who live within our soil.
