🚀 GEOMETRIC MUTATIONS | SCREEN TO SCULPTURE

Digital drawing meets hands-on making. Ideas evolve, shapes mutate, and pixels become physical forms.

Every Wednesday at BACA, young people experiment with Procreate, explore design, and build their own sculptural creations using 3D pens. A space to play, learn new skills, think differently and make something uniquely theirs.

Free weekly creative sessions, building confidence, skills and connections through art and technology. 💥

Big thanks to East Brighton Trust and Sussex Community Foundation for supporting this long-running project and helping keep creative opportunities open to local young people. 💙

Geometric Mutation is all about transformation — moving from digital lines and colours into physical forms and objects.
Each week at BACA (Wednesdays 3–4pm, term time) young people explore digital drawing with Procreate, learn design principles, and build sculptural pieces using 3D pens. Creativity becomes a journey from screen to sculpture.

We’re deeply grateful to East Brighton Trust .brighton.trust for funding this project and enabling us to offer free, imaginative, skill-building experiences for local young people 💙✨
