The exhibition of contemporary African photography, Marvelous Realism, is on display at the Fotografiska. A special children's activity combining creativity with a sense of interactive experience, the Extraordinary Masks Workshop, will be presented during the exhibition.
Inspired by the African artworks in Marvelous Realism, children will learn about the background and expressive power of African art and unique culture. Under the guidance of the instructor, children will learn the artist's use of rich materials and colors to design and create their own masks. And finally, they will dance together wearing their handmade masks to show off their creative achievements!
