WORKSHOP | A STORY TO BE WORN | MARIANA DEL CASTILLO
 
In this series of three workshops, artist Mariana del Castillo led a group in creating bespoke wearable art. There is an intimacy conveyed with each piece of jewellery we choose to wear, however there can be multiple meanings beyond aesthetics. Participants  explored a variety of materials creating delicate and detailed constructions. These tactile creations used personal metaphors to tell stories and allude to the passage of time.
