Dancing is to Make Movements
Author Visits吴睿哲 (Jui-Che Wu)
22 May 2025 (Thursday)All Ages
This workshop invites participants to explore movement through playful, hands-on creation. Starting with Dancing is to Make Movements, we will experiment with the body, then translate those gestures into art. Participants will create their own articulated paper puppets using split pins, and use a scanner to capture dynamic poses and images, turning everyday motion into visual expression.
