On view in GOMA gardens will be some of the works carried out on the two day Workshops in response to Joanna Hopkins exhibition tailored to the Ukrainian Community. 
 
 
The works will be on display from 6-7pm, 
Music and Refreshments provided.  
 
The two day project took place the 30th and 31st of March and the outcome will be on view this Thursday 6pm-7pm.
 
The two day workshop was created in collaboration with Ben Hennessy and Seamus O’Brien on Joanna Hopkins work, the Fruity Bodies exhibition, which was explored with the members of the Ukrainian community.
 
Responding artists were given access to the Fruity Bodies exhibition  throughout the workshops 
 After spending time with the work the participants were asked to  create their own response  to the work with the assistance of the facilitators. 
 
The resulting work in progress will include and explored the expanded field of drawing practice in its broadest term.
