Where photography meets embroidery, stories unfold and magic happens. Photo-embroidery is a way to elevate a 2D image into a tactile and even 3D one. Participants will be guided step-by-step with creating or selecting an image for intervention, choosing the types of materials for it and learn to embroider using an array of flat and raised stitches.

Creating a zine can also be an act of “remembering”. In this workshop, participants will be prompted to establish personal and intimate expressions with the humble craft of zine making. Explore with paper folding techniques, collaging and experimental low-tech printing processes with visual art educator and practitioner, Nur Hanis Binte Selamat.

When written words are translated into visual images, what could a story look like? Explore how text can be visually translated to create deeper meanings. Using simple typography, colour theory exercises and various printmaking processes, participants formulate their own ways to produce a series of visual poems that connect with them and their community.
