We're keeping Tate Modern open after hours exclusively for Tate Collective! Get ready to immerse yourself in Abakanowicz’s forest-like world of sculptures. Discover her towering works made from woven fibres. Plus, experience her special three-dimensional textile works called Abakans.
After the show, drop into our meditative letter writing workshop, inspired by Abakanowicz. The workshop offers a peaceful moment to look inwards and explore your emotions through a letter to yourself. For centuries letters have been an intimate channel into a person's life. They connect our inner thoughts to our physical state. We’ll guide you to use Abakanowicz’s sculptures as inspiration to write your own.
