Memory and Craft Workshop

September 20, 12-5 PM

All ages welcome to this come-and-go workshop exploring clay and paper-mache techniques to create small artworks about our memories of home.

Through large-scale paper-mache, ceramic sculpture, and drawings, Addie explores the idea of home and belonging. This body of work speaks to the journey we all take to find our own way. It touches on moments passed, missed, or misremembered, reflecting on the spaces we can never return but will always long for. In an attempt to resemble safety and belonging based on these memories, we look for our worth in others' eyes and try to enter that room without ever having been given the key.

Addie Moore is an interdisciplinary illustrator living in Washington, DC. Her practice is an act of play and personal reflection, often like a diary recording experiences and landscapes of anxiety and personal struggles with memory, anxiety, emotional recovery, neurodivergence, and escapism. Through layering, color, and image, she harnesses emotion and distorts memory, inviting the viewers to reflect on the complexities of the human experience through ceramic, mixed media, paper-mache, and digital processes.

This project was funded by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities.
