Recently, artist Dorcas Casey held her first creative sculpture workshop with members of the public to start to animate the newly commissioned public artwork for Welcome Building® at Temple Quay, Bristol.

The sessions gave people a chance to explore working with clay, mark making, pressing, sculpting, chatting about Bristol folklore, the old lands and inhabitants of Bristol’s waterways.

People then were able to cast their creations, bringing them to life! The castings will be directly used as part of the final artwork and people will be able to see and touch the parts they contributed towards.

Special thank you to the attendees from SAH Morning Meet-up, for being so keen on getting stuck in.
