Candles by Trippy Tuesday
About the Creation
Trippy Tuesday (aka Sam Margriet Bokma) made 50 decorated pillar candles for the Haringey Feast banquet tables at Alexandra Palace. The candles were created from vegan and responsibly sourced soy wax, mica powder and decorated with candle-safe paint.
Drop-in candle making workshops were held with the local community at Cambio Studios.
