Artists, Models, iNK is a collective of life models creating model-led art happenings & life drawing events with a twist. Co-founded by Kate Shields and a group of artists and models in 2011.
Our events use poses, performance and music for an immersive environment that encourages creative flow for those drawing, whilst foregrounding the connection between artist and life model.
So far we’ve run bespoke, experimental and site-specific events in galleries, cabarets, club nights, theatres, festivals, museums, co-working spaces and artist studios. Want a creative drawing workshop at your venue? Get in touch.
