About the workshop:
Need some time out? Need an escape? Then become the creator of your very own visual journey where you get to dabble in what some artists may call the dark arts of contemporary art, i.e. collage.
Why? Because have you ever been told NOT to cut up books? Exactly!
In this workshop, you’ll be ENCOURAGED to do just that! But instead of destroying things, you’ll get to create a whole new world of your own – almost like a dream, but on paper.
What you will learn:
Bring along yourself and/or a playmate – be it your bestie, secret-not-so-secret crush, visiting family/friends, date or loved ones and surprise yourself with the always-unexpected result of the most unique piece of art straight from your imagination!
You’ll be presented with an eclectic collection of a specially curated selection of paper paraphernalia (vintage children’s books, encyclopaedias, National Geographics, calendars from olde, etc) and led through a step-by-step approach.
The deeper we go into the workshop, the more freedom you’ll have, but I’ll be there to gently guide you all along the way, without being invasive.
Welcome to the incomparable thrill of cutting into what you’ve always been told wasn’t allowed.
You’ll cut out ONLY the parts that resonate with YOU, that matter and stand out to YOU. The result will be something UNIQUELY YOU.
Light refreshments & French background music will be served.
Your space:
You’ll be sitting in the dreamiest, whimsical studio on the planet, situated on the expansive grounds of Montsalvat, which has charming, old European architecture, reminiscent of medieval South of France. Montsalvat is Australia’s oldest continuously operating artist collective.
Storyholding Art Studio is a healing and INCREDIBLY CALMING-FIND-YOURSELF-sort of place – one that makes people leave with a fulfilled smile and sense of connection.
Gift yourself or a loved one(s) this golden opportunity to indulge in the hands-on therapeutic discipline of contemporary collage.
Light refreshments will be available (tea/coffee facilities & often some light snacks, too). You’re more than welcome to bring your own food/ plate to share.
