Course Description

This practical course will introduce collage as a way of thinking and encourage learning through making. Through workshops and studio time, you will learn new techniques and realise the potential of collage. You will be experimenting with mixed media (paint, drawing, 3D etc) looking at the varied techniques of collage, and challenging the boundaries of the medium. We will look at the history of collage and its contemporary importance, focusing on Slade alumni for inspiration. The mornings will start with a brief talk and a practical workshop, leaving the afternoons for studio development, discussions and tutorials.

 

This course looks at working instinctively and building confidence to realise the exciting potential of collage. The workshop is equally appropriate for people trying collage, or indeed art, for the first time or people who want to explore collage in order to feed into their existing art practice.
