Aura Art - Russian Nesting Doll (Matryoshka) Workshop

Description

Hong Kong is a melting pot of cultures, which is why it's no surprise that even the Russian nesting doll has made its way to the bustling metropolis. Known as 'matryoshka' in its motherland, this folk toy is a set of wooden dolls fitted inside each other in a descending order. Each doll follows a theme - may it be political, a slice of life, or even pop culture. Try your hand at traditional Russian nesting doll-making with this workshop by Aura Art. Head over their studio in Central and be greeted by a friendly multilingual tutor. A short briefing will ensue and samples will be given as your guide throughout the class. Follow the tutor's step-by-step process for better results but feel free to have your way with your own set of dolls. Play around with colors and tools as you create a theme that personally interests you or speaks of your personality. Make sure to take home your finished set as souvenir - an interesting home decor with Russian origins, yet filled with memories of Hong Kong.
