SUMMARY:Fresh Fruit 18-30s Workshop: sooooooft play (hard work?): A porcel

DESCRIPTION:24.09.26\, 6-8pm. Free. For 18-30s.  \nInviting participants 
 to respond to Eva Rothschild’s sculpture series Soft Play and film Safe\
 , 2026\, this porcelain handbuilding workshop will make use of intuitive a
 nd embodied sculpting methods to create playful\, abstract sculptures.  \
 nWe often associate porcelain with fragility\, as well as a gendered and r
 acialised performance of femininity. But in its wet clay state\, it is sof
 t\, slippery\, and highly malleable. Drawing on Rothschild’s thinking ab
 out gendered modes of engaging with objects in public space\, we’ll shap
 e and stretch wet porcelain to create emotional artefacts of ‘gender per
 formance’ and bodily experience. We’ll think about queerness\, masculi
 nity\, and femininity\, finding potential for gender disobedience and play
  in experiencing the soft and slippery. \nAs tactility comes to the fore\,
  participants are encouraged to respond more to feeling than an attempt to
  create pre-existing forms\; the potential structural collapse of these ob
 jects can become interesting stories to tell\, too. At the end of the work
 shop\, we’ll stage a mini exhibition of our work\, plotting our objects 
 in space together.  \nThis workshop especially welcomes queer and trans p
 articipants.  \nXuanlin Tham is a Singaporean writer\, curator\, and make
 r based in Edinburgh\, keenly interested in the (collective) body and desi
 re. Their book Revolutionary Desires: The Political Power of the Sex Scene
  explores the sex scene’s capacity to interrupt the violences of capital
 ism\, and is out with 404 Ink. They programme at Take One Action\, an arts
  organisation harnessing the transformative power of film and storytelling
  for social and environmental justice in Scotland and beyond. As an indepe
 ndent curator and facilitator\, they have worked with Glasgow Short Film F
 estival\, Queer East\, Rhubaba\, and the Edinburgh Art Festival. Xuanlin
 ’s writing on film and culture has been published in e–flux\, British 
 GQ\, i-D\, Little White Lies\, and AnOther Magazine\, among others.  \nAc
 cess \n\nOur building has step-free access and is wheelchair accessi
 ble via a lift.\n\n\nAll of our toilets and gender neutral.\n\n\nDuring e
