As part of the research for The Argonauts, a new public artwork by Ivan Morison for NDSM Werf, Iridescent Studio and Stichting NDSM-werf invite you to join an evening of observational drawing. External location, not at NDSM.

This special session will feature two models and a rope artist working through a series of floor-based and suspended tying sequences by Papi. Participants are invited to draw the changing relationships between bodies as they move through moments of connection, restriction, support and suspension, exploring how this trust can generate unexpected sculptural forms.

Carlo Marló will be guiding this session. Previous life drawing experience is welcome, but not essential. This is not a taught class.

The session forms part of Morison's research for The Argonauts. Rather than producing direct studies for the final sculptures, the drawings and experience of the evening will help shape the work as it develops.

What to bring?

  • Please bring your own drawing materials.
  • We will be drawing on the floor, and we have yoga matts and pillows but feel free to bring your own if you prefer.
  • Comfortable clothes in which you can move freely.
  • A pair of sandals/flip flops to get to the toilet, since they are not directly inside the studio.
