Wear Your Words: Live Block Printing
Shilpa Gupta
Part of Alserkal Art Week: A Wild Stitch
Wear Your Words invites visitors to bring their own T-shirts or tote bags to be block-printed with a text by Shilpa Gupta, directly referencing her light-text sculpture in the Between a Beach and Slope exhibition.
This hands-on experience bridges Gupta’s exploration of language, identity, and communication with personal engagement, as participants reflect on how these themes intersect with their own lives.
Printing facilities will be open and accessible throughout the weekend, providing an opportunity for visitors to interact with the artwork. By reusing personal items, the event also fosters a conversation about sustainability.
Drop by near the Yard, outside WH46 anytime between 4 to 9PM on 19 and 20 April!
