Please note: this event will be held in person.
What was the last souvenir you bought? What was the last moment you wished you’d never forget?
Join illustrator Olivia Juett in exploring how memories can be held and souvenirs created for moments that are important to you. They could be personal stories or everyday occurrences - all worth remembering. You will explore a personal memory from many different angles and bring these observations together to create a memento magnet for a moment you want to hold close.
NB - Memories and nostalgia can bring up a mix of positive and painful emotions. The workshop will mainly focus on positive past experiences, but I understand this often comes with a many other emotions and associations. Please take care of yourself and only share what you feel comfortable exploring in a group session.

About Olivia:
I am an illustrator and printmaker based in Glasgow, mainly working with analogue processes. Much of my work draws attention to fleeting atmospheres and unexpected moments of reflection; driven by observation, I explore how different elements come together to create multi-layered stories.
