Art of Possibility – Transform Aluminium Can into Art

Following artist Noah's guidance, we only need two thumbs to scrape grid by grid on an aluminium can, slowly outlining a completely unique pattern. This creative process not only produces an eco-friendly little artwork, but also quietly leads people into a flow state, bringing a moment of rest and tranquillity.
 
*Participants are required to bring their own 330ml soda can.
