A Touch of Wilderness: Life-Casting Workshop

Loreal Prystaj is a multidisciplinary artist and photographer who explores themes of transformation, memory, and the human connection to nature. Drawing inspiration from personal archives, poetic narratives, and the cycles of the natural world, her practice blends photography, sculpture, and mixed media to create evocative, tactile experiences.

Discover the art of life-casting in this interactive two-hour workshop that captures the beauty of human connection. Bring a friend or meet someone new as you create lasting memories by casting your hands in plaster.

You’ll explore the art of creating a mold of your hand or palm, mix plaster, and cast it to create a unique sculpture—capturing a moment in time as a tangible keepsake. By the end of the session, you’ll leave the festival with your very own hand cast: A Touch of Wilderness to treasure forever.

Whether you’re looking to celebrate friendship, connection, or the magic of the festival, this hands-on experience is one you won’t want to miss!

Open to all, though any under 13 should attend with a parent or adult.
