Description

The workshops are designed for a total of 15 hours divided in five sessions. They are experimental, creative and messy.

1- Art-Laboratory. Muscle Memory Exercise. 2 - Art - Manufacture. Exercise for Visual Memory. 3 - Art-Publishing. Exercise for attention. 4 - Abstract Art workshop. Exercise on composition, including drawing, painting, 3D assemblages and collages. 5 - Narrating through visuals. Speed-drawing class for building visual narration.

The intense hours are dedicated to increase visual memory, to open new ways of applying marks and gestures. Participants will work from browsed materials and memory, experimenting in variety of art techniques.

After the course you will increase the capacity of visual memory through creative practical processes on memory recollection, through your own interpretation of artistic styles. In addition, you will improve confidence in recognising art styles and elements of art movements. The second part of the course will focus on basics of art compositions and its application for your own visual narration. At the end of the course you will be able to transform your imagined idea into creative piece of art.
