EXPERIMENTAL WORKSHOP ON BIOBEADS FOR JEWELRY WITH LEA CULETTO
Škuc Gallery
Stari trg 21, Ljubljana
Friday, 18 April 2025, from 17:00 to 19:00
Saturday, 19 April 2025, from 12:00 to 13:00
Participants will explore creating with biomaterials from natural ingredients (e.g. alginate and natural dyes) in an experimental two-part workshop led by artist Lee Culetto. The workshop will enable participants to make their own bioplastic beads for jewellery, learning the basics of the chemical processes that enable the creation of bioplastics. Participants will be able to use these beads to creatively repurpose existing jewelry. The workshop focuses on the intersection of art, science, design and technology, with a particular emphasis on sustainable practices.
Lea Culetto (1995) completed her postgraduate studies in painting at the Academy of Fine Arts, Architecture and Design (ALUO). As a self-employed cultural practitioner, she works in the field of visual arts, with an emphasis on a feminist approach. Using textiles and mixed media, she creates objects and installations through which she questions ideals, taboos and notions of the female body, often drawing on personal experience. She has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions and festivals in Slovenia and abroad. She also conducts various workshops and works as a costume designer.
