Description

Step into the world of sculpture and creativity with a hands-on family workshop at the Arnaldo Pomodoro Studio in Milan.

Meet your professional art teacher at the A. Pomodoro Fondazione, where you and your family will discover Pomodoro’s innovative “negative” sculpting method. In this interactive session, you’ll mold clay to create abstract designs, then pour plaster into your mold and watch as your artwork comes to life.

While waiting for the plaster to set, explore Pomodoro’s iconic Sphere and learn how the renowned artist reinterpreted this form from different artistic perspectives. Once the plaster is ready, experience the thrill of unmolding your bas-relief, revealing the transformation from negative clay imprints to positive plaster reliefs.

A fantastic opportunity for families, this workshop fosters creativity, artistic expression, and bonding through sculpture, leaving you with a unique handmade artwork to take home as a lasting souvenir of your experience.
