Explore how folk heritage, mythology, and traditional design can be reimagined through the lens of contemporary digital collage in this online workshop led by ‘The View from Here’ Leighton House exhibition artist, Zaina El-Said.

Participants will delve into the dialogue between past and present, examining how symbols, colours, and cultural motifs can evolve into new visual languages.
