Moonlit castles. Shadows in the windows. Bats overhead….. Have you got a Gothic Tale you want to create at Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival?
Inspired by the haunting atmosphere of Stoker’s Dracula and the elegance of Victorian design, create your very own Paper Theatre Pop-Up with Art in Layers.
Using colorful papers, stickers, and simple paper techniques, you’ll cut, layer and build a dramatic pop-up scene featuring Gothic architecture, curious creatures, Victorian details and whatever else your imagination can conjure.
No experience is needed – all materials are provided. You’ll leave with a unique handmade artwork that tells a Gothic Tale of its own.
Alina is a Dublin-based artist and founder of Art in Layers, creating immersive paper art experiences that bring people together through storytelling and craftsmanship.
Part of Night Bites, Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival’s after-dark series presented in association with the Night-Time Economy Advisor.
