Experimental Ephemera: Creative Reuse in Painting, Collage, and Mixed Media

Sunday, May 10th, 1:00 - 4:00pm

with Brianna Perry

Treating collage, assemblage, and chance as open-ended approaches, this course is designed for artists interested in furthering mixed media exploration in their personal work. Beginning with materials drawn from their own households, students will use process-driven methods to explore extended definitions of image-making, painting (acrylics, oils, and watercolors), collage, and drawing. Emphasis is placed on low-tech, hands-on, chance-driven, and improvisational techniques in the contemporary fields of painting, assemblage, and collage. We will also explore and investigate contemporary and art-historical approaches to collage, assemblage, the found object, and the ongoing relevance of these techniques to artists working across and between mediums.
