Registration for Light Sculpture Workshop by Waraq

This two-day workshop will invite you to revive an object of your choice, an object that sits inanimate in your house and whose use has been slowly coming to an end.

A heater, a jar of pickles, a vase, your grandmother’s garden pots, anything that might inspire you to turn it into a lighting sculpture.

You will be guided by Ghassan to understand the approach of design and the techniques of creating a unique light source.
