COLLAGE WORKSHOP - all 4 sessions
4 weeks starting SUNDAY 2 MARCH
SUNDAYS 5pm-7pm
kollectiv
Join us for the 4-week course exploring COLLAGE as visual form.
Accessible and open to all - the inspiring way to start your new year.
We will look at different ways in which collage can be approached and how various artists have used it in their work and exploited its unique characteristics and capabilities.
Participants will be introduced to a brief history of the style with each week dedicated to different takes on collage. This will include collage as a political, socially engaged, surrealist, analogue and digital practice.
The inherent quality of collage is that it creates new art and meaning from already existing entities. It strips these entities of their original meaning and intended use and represents them as new. In doing so it creates new understandings, new meanings, and new art.
ABOUT THE TEACHER: ROB BIRCH
I have over thirty years experience of in making, thinking and teaching art. Since 2006 I have dedicated my practice to digital collage as a means to present an unrecorded working-class notion of self. I explore identity as a sensorial experience. One that is free of the tyranny of representation.
