Sketch Corner with Kandre Arámidẹ Hassan

7 May 2025 at 18.30–20.30

Join us for an evening of sketching at The Corner

Head down to Corner for the second session of Artist Kandre Arámidẹ Hassan’s Journeying Through the Subconscious Sketch Corner series.

Exploring Movement and Physical Connection Through Gestural Drawing

For the last session of Hassan’s Journeying Through the Subconscious series, we will explore movement and physical connection through gestural drawing, inspired by a dance performance. This 2-hour session invites participants to connect with their physical and emotional bodies, using dance as a reference to translate movement, energy, and emotion into expressive marks.

The session will encourage participants to use drawing as a tool for expressing internal states, creating flowing, spontaneous compositions, offering a unique opportunity to explore how movement and emotion merges into creativity.

Whether drawing in response to your own movements or those of a partner, this session encourages a deeper exploration of the body as a tool for self-expression and connection.
