11/23 WORKSHOP: Flower Arranging with MANU

This in-person workshop is taught by instructor Manu Torres. Over the course of two hours, participants will build one arrangement utilizing in-season botanicals, repurposed materials, synthetics and natural fibers. 

Torres will guide you through his personal process- applying simple floral design principals to create unconventional structures with playful material ingenuity. All necessary elements will be provided for the workshop.

Manu Torres is an artist and floral sculptor from central Mexico and based in Portland, Oregon. He is the founder of Florescent, a floral design studio, building arrangements that dialogue between the artificial and the natural. Torres incorporates paper, fabric, paint, synthetic fibers, and feathers to imitate and exaggerate natural beauty in a hyperreal way. His work has been featured in Elle Decor, Domino, and Museum of Art and Design. His recent solo exhibition at Russo Lee Gallery was an ArtForum Critic's Pick.

Saturday, November 23rd, 2pm-4pm
