Ishara Art Foundation, in partnership with Wisdom Warehouse, presents ‘Words, Worlds and Wondering’, a family workshop that explores how artists transform abstract concepts into creative expression. Young participants are invited to bring their own ideas to life, inspired by Ishara’s exhibition Urdu Worlds.
Participants will be led on a guided walkthrough of Urdu Worlds, encouraging interactive engagement with selected artworks that examine themes of language, identity and belonging. The workshop then continues at the Wisdom Warehouse studio, where they will create original free-form responses, working with any medium of their choice – from drawing and mark-making to collage and poetry.
This event is presented in conjunction with the exhibition Urdu Worlds, currently on view at the Ishara Art Foundation.
