Let’s Make Art! Family Workshop at Home: El Anatsui
概述
创造你自己的挂毯挂在你的墙上!这个家庭艺术活动的灵感来自尼日利亚艺术家的作品El Anatsui, who creates large metallic tapestries out of re-purposed materials including bottle caps, aluminum commercial packaging, and copper wire.
Anatsui twists and folds these materials together to resemble African kente cloth, which is made by weaving narrow strips of fabric into a whole patchworked piece of cloth. For the artist, as the son and brother of professional kente weavers, the kente cloth has both personal meaning and symbolic power.
