Using the same techniques as Mere Phantoms, learn how to create your own paper cutouts to make shadow art.
Mere Phantoms’ interactive shadow workshops are designed to engage audiences of all ages – including adults, young people, children and families. In this hands-on workshop, a selection of paper-cutting techniques will be demonstrated followed by guided instruction in designing and creating your own paper cutouts. Participants will then have the opportunity to use Mere Phantoms' hand-held light wands to explore how their pieces translate in light and shadow.
