Surrealist Collage Workshop - Tickets still available!

May 01, 2017 by Jen Pilles in Event

Tickets are still available for our Surrealist Collage Workshop with renowned collage artist Danielle Cole.

Click here to get your ticket!

What will we cover?

  • We will begin with collage based on the Surrealist activity Corpse Bizarre
  • Techniques for seamlessly cutting material to be used in collage
  • Going beyond the glue stick – techniques for gluing fine and large pieces of collage without causing the material to bubble or tear
  • How to source and combine collage materials in order to create a unique piece of art

What’s it all about?

Michelangelo said of his art ‘every block of stone has a statue inside and it is the task of the sculpture to discover it.’ This quote holds true for the construction of the collages. Sorting through hundreds of images, from magazines and books both new and old, until the magical moment when all the pieces come together to create a perfect piece of art. Collage is the perfect medium for creative thinkers, artists and crafty people. This is a hands-on workshop where you will be shown strategies for creating collages that are seamlessly built and helped towards creating a unique piece of art to take home at the end of the evening. All materials will be provided.
