Community Art-Making Workshop with Artist Roisin Bateman

Description:

The Leiber Collection is thrilled to announce a special community art-making workshop with Artist Roisin Bateman.

Using materials such as vines, leaves and twigs sourced from the Leiber Garden, and bound together with various types of wire, we will create sculptural forms. We’ll allow the materials to guide us as we explore different possibilities and shapes. Roisin will guide you through the process and you’ll be surprised at what emerges! Together we’ll create a mobile to suspend from a tree at the Leiber Garden. The piece will remain in the Garden of Friends for the duration of the exhibition.

In honor of her childhood growing up on the West coast of Ireland, we’ll have an “Irish tea”, with soda bread, and of course tea!

Roisin Bateman began her life and her art in the west of Ireland. After receiving her BFA from Belfast College of Art in Northern Ireland, she moved to the USA. For the past thirty years she has lived in Sag Harbor on the South Fork of Long Island. Bateman’s paintings, prints, and pastel works have been shown throughout the US and Ireland, including at the Peter Marcelle Gallery, Bridgehampton, NY; Folioeast, East Hampton, NY; the Watermill Center and Sara Nightingale Gallery, Watermill, NY; the Nabi Gallery, Manhattan; at the Heckscher Museum, Huntington, NY; and the Linenhall Gallery in Castlebar, Ireland. She has been leading art workshops for adults for the past 15 years, including at Guild Hall, East Hampton, Madoo Conservancy, Sagaponack, The Art Barge, Napeague, and JJML Library in Sag.

The Leiber Collection is located at 446 Old Stone Highway in the East Hampton hamlet of Springs. For more information see the website at www.leibercollection.org, email info!@leibercollection.org or call 631-329-3288.
