Queer life drawing @coven (above Fabwick) in Queen’s Yard, Hackney Wick
To be hosted by Spencer Grimshaw (slpgtattoo), artist and tattoo artist
After moving to London a year ago Spencer found that the life drawing sessions available either didn’t feature a diverse range of models, didn’t feel like a safe space for queer people or weren’t regular enough to create a community so decided to create that space and community of like minded people
All abilities are welcome from beginner to experienced! As I will be offering options to be tutored or non-tutored
We will be here every Sunday
Materials will be provided however, if there is anything specific that you require please provide this yourself
Every week we will be hosting a diverse range of queer models
This weeks model is Hannah
Before becoming an art model, Hannah started out on the other side of things, attending life drawing as a draughtsman. What began as a weekly artistic practice—a means of accessing a certain "presentness" as respite from her intellectual pursuits—has blossomed into an exploration of aesthetic objectification, extending from life modelling to shibari.
