We're staying late at the Mills this Spring to bring you the Overtime Art Club sessions! Come along for relaxed evenings of drawing, printing, illustration and more - all facilitated by local emerging artists.
You're welcome to bring your own drinks to the session, 
we'll provide all the materials you'll need.
This season's sessions are a series of Ones to Watch specials, getting to know some of our exhibiting emerging artists and learning new skills in a relaxed setting! We are keen to help our 
Ones to Watch artists
 develop other areas of their careers outside of Gallery walls, and find many artists and makers diversify their practice through teaching workshops.
This session with artist Atiyya is a self portrait workshop, where we will each make a self portrait by reusing and upcycling scrap fabrics, papers, materials and anything with interesting textures, patterns and colours. The aim of the workshop is to reflect on how we see ourselves to create an abstract self portrait - focusing on certain facial features, expressions and the things that make us unique as individuals.
About the artist
Atiyya Mirza is British, Pakistani, Muslim artist based in Bradford. Her work explores themes of womanhood, empowerment, storytelling and identity through textiles and sculpture. She applies a sense of playfulness to her work, whilst showcasing topics important to her, such as breaking cultural barriers and stereotypes, exploring religion and relationship as well as language and heritage.
You can view Atiyya's work within the Gallery until 27th April.
