22-WRKS_Exploring Ideas with Collage

Repurposing your own artworks can kick-start new ideas. Freed from their previous incarnations, new and imaginative possibilities emerge from work destined for the recycle bin.

Experiment and create new compositions using discarded works on paper and any other collage elements you fancy (flat colours, magazines, old books, photographs, posters etc).

Some materials will be provided – but do bring your own discarded landscape sketches, old paintings, figure drawings, a sketchbook of ideas and be prepared to play with texture, shape, colour, line, form and space.

Over a full-day workshop, starting with some generative creative exercises, Erica will encourage participants to experiment with a variety of materials to explore their own imagery and create a series of collage works.
