Pathfoot Building - University of Stirling

Join artist Orla Stevens for a mixed media abstract painting &amp; drawing workshop. In this memory mapping workshop, we will be taking a short walk around the Stirling university campus, to gather inspiration. The class will explore memory, mixed media processes, and how to use texture, colours and symbols to create artwork that reflects journeys, emotions and memories of a place. This workshop is suitable for all levels of experience, and focuses on playful processes and experimentation in a welcoming environment. A﻿bout Orla: Orla Stevens is a Scottish artist and illustrator, based in Callander. Her work looks to connect people to nature and landscape, inspired by the importance of play, exploration and positivity that both the creation process and being in the outdoors share. Orla’s work combines influences from screen printed textiles and folk art with her adventures outside. A firm believer in the importance of accessibility across art and access to the outdoors, Orla hopes her work encourages more ways of noticing, celebrating and protecting our natural spaces. Through painting, Orla explores her own connections to places, mapping her memories and multi-sensory experiences. Sounds, visuals and emotions are represented through colours, marks, textures and shapes to capture a sense of place. Collaborating across a wide range of applications, Orla loves working in multidisciplinary ways; across public artwork, screen printed textiles, album artwork, murals and beyond. Orla holds a BA (hons) from Edinburgh College of Art in Printed Textiles. Work is held in public and private collections across Europe, Australia and Canada. This event is part of the Art Collection's Open Day. For more information about the other activities please visit www.artcol.stir.ac.uk.
