As part of the exhibition Julius von Bismarck: This is not the storm<\/em><\/strong><\/a> ACCA is pleased to announce the second session in our new series, Drawing Club – Expanded Drawing with Lauren Simmonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join this immersive drawing workshop, where participants will push the boundaries of traditional drawing through experimental mark-making, observational drawing and dynamic techniques with pencil and charcoal. Responding to the movement within the artworks, as well as the themes of humanity and nature explored in the exhibition, these exercises are designed to ignite creativity and encourage a fresh exploration of drawing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauren Simmonds\u2019 practice crosses drawing, sculpture, installation and performance. She often uses her body as a medium to traverse these artforms. Previous works have taken the form of immersive kinetic installations that are part performance and part sculpture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauren works with everyday materials, which she activates in playful ways to change their inherent qualities. She works with unpredictability and chance to challenge and push her materials and her ideas beyond their perceived capacity, thus transmuting their original form.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
