About this Event

Join artist Kamal Malhotra to explore Edinburgh’s queer history through vintage maps, images, magazines, scissors, and glue! This informal collage workshop looks at the material Lavender Menace used for our Desire Paths exhibition and encourages participants to remix and redesign Edinburgh’s queer past. 

About the facilitator

Kamal Malhotra is an Edinburgh-based illustrator who graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 2024. His favourite subjects to explore are queer experiences of the body, the internet and digital culture, and gay sex. He has an interest in printmaking and regularly works with risograph, linocut, and monotype, often combined with digital and other traditional media. He also enjoys designing posters and publications.

What to expect

An informal creative workshop in a small-group setting. The workshop lasts for 2 hours with a break in the middle. No experience necessary and no advance preparation needed. We will have material for you to use here.
