We can be heroes with Tony Albert
7 & 8 Jan 2016
Tony Albert’s award-winning body of work We can be heroes, which is included in Tarnanthi, addresses the impact of negative comments on self-image. In this workshop you can be the hero.
Using an image of yourself, think about what it might feel like to be a target. Working from these feelings, decorate, embellish and hand colour your photograph to create a strong and positive statement about yourself.
