In the workshop “The Discovery of A Secret Language”, Mexican artist Ane Alfeiran will invite the participants to resonate with the secret language of embroidery works in history, to allow the participants to explore embroidering lines, patterns, or even text, to create your own secret languages. In the full day workshop, the artist will tutor several basic embroidering techniques, participants will then embroider on a canvas, to hide their own resilient secret message in their creation. In the later session of the workshop the artist will guide the participants to collaborate and deliver their own secret messages, at the end to sublimate the art pieces through creation, erasure, and replication. The embroidery pieces from the participants will be eventually stitched into a giant collaborative work, and the aesthetics of embroidery will be presented.
The collaborative outcome of the workshop will be presented to the public in the HART Social Studio showcase in the end of the year.
在《秘密語言》工作坊中，墨西哥藝術家 Ane Alfeiran 將向大家介紹和追溯歷史刺繡作品上的暗語，繼而帶領參加者探索如何透過刺繡線條、圖案，甚至文字，製作屬於自己的秘密語言。在全日的工作坊中，藝術家會先教授基本的刺繡技巧，讓參加者在畫布上刺繡，將自己柔韌的暗語隱藏於創作中。工作坊的環節將引導參加者合作互相寄託暗語，透過創造、消除、複製等方式，轉化及昇華刺繡作品。最終參與者的刺繡將匯集縫拼成一幅大型合作作品，並展示刺繡的美學意義。
工作坊的創作最後將在年末於我們的匯舍展示中向公眾展出。
