About this event
Join us for a playful, hands-on collage workshop inspired by magical realism and surrealism.
Taking inspiration from the imaginative worlds of Leonora Carrington and other surrealist artists, participants are invited to experiment with found images, unexpected combinations and visual storytelling.
Together, we will explore how fragments of everyday imagery can be transformed into strange, dreamlike and magical compositions.
The workshop offers an opportunity to experiment, play and create something unexpected. No previous collage experience is necessary.
