Free Workshop | Open to All
This workshop will be led by Gold Maria Akanbi as part of their residency in The Everybody Gallery.
Focusing on expanding and enhancing the connection between the interior and exterior locus of self, Gold will use some reference to psychology as well as indigenous beliefs and concepts of survival.
This workshop will take place in two parts of 45 minutes each.
About the Artist
Gold Maria Akanbi is a poly-sensory artist and researcher. Gold uses their intersectional identity to explore a myriad of concepts, such as: world-building; alternative utopias; Indigenous wisdom and forms of logic; interiority and aspects of self; and spirituality that uses the cohesiveness of the senses.
Gold’s work spans a plurality of mediums. Using mediums as languages for the audience, Gold hopes that through their plurality and poly-sensory approach, they will be able to communicate with as many audience members as possible.
With the ever changing frontier of humankind, Gold hopes to look to the past in order to find what truly makes us resilient as human beings.
