Tuan-shan Flower Painting with Chinese Painting Techniques aims to introduce participants to the unique style of Tuan-shan flower painting using Chinese Ink Painting techniques. The workshops will emphasize the technical skills of painting while also exploring the cultural significance and philosophical values behind this ancient art form. Students will develop visual thinking skills by considering the meaning and symbolism of different types of flowers in various cultures. The workshops will specifically focus on the free-hand style Chinese painting technique and botanical themes, encouraging participants to explore their creativity and broaden their perspectives.
A project by OI! Trondheim about developing a (stronger) awareness of self and surroundings in terms of marginalization and intersectionality. Through art workshops and conversation, we will develop and discover how by being made to feel differently shapes who we are and how we can carry this feeling around with us in our life in situations where difference is not necessarily a factor.
We invite young people between the ages of 15-25 to make art, learn from each other's life experiences and strengthen self-awareness. Welcome.
Please sign up by sending an e-mail to oi@kunsthalltrondheim.no with your full name.
The workshops will be based on learning and practicing different forms of art conducted by an artist. For example Tuanshan Painting with Sidney Kong in the first workshop.

ABOUT OI!
Oi! is a project for young people of colour who are interesting in telling their own story. Oi! was initiated by the artist Emma Wolukau-Wanambwa for the Bergen Assembly exhibition in 2019. Now, Oi! is coming to Trondheim. Read more about the project and how to participate below.
Oi! brings together people between the ages of 19 and 25 who have experienced racism. The project provides them with a platform to meet and discuss issues that are important to them on their own terms. Out of these discussions, the group develops public projects that address issues of social and environmental justice.
