Families Body Adornment Workshop at the V&A Museum

blog Creative Journal

It is said that creativity is imagination having so much fun. I'm an advocate of reusing, recycling and repurposing.

For my upcoming families workshop with the @v&a museum, I am having fun creating ideas I can share with families on the day to inspire them to try different things using various mediums.

Black eye beans are one of the staple foods in Africa; not only have I incorporated these into this cuff that I made from recycled paper cups and straws, but I also have introduced various mediums to tell a story of body markings inspired by nature.

During the summer, we had so much fun at the family's body adornment workshop at the V&A Museum that I am returning for a more extended session. The only critique we had from the summer session was they wished it was longer.
