TERM 1 2023: Collage: Colour, Cut, Paste, Play (3 - 6 April) | Term One, 2023
It's a great way of playing with ideas, textures and colours.
This very open-ended, creative process with unexpected, exciting results begins by selecting images or marks you've found or made. Start the cutting and playing with positioning. Stick them down and review.
Results can be outrageous or delightful - your choice.
Suitable for all levels.
Content
We'll start by making and finding collage materials. On day one we put colour onto paper using tools to make unique marks, and go out foraging for things to use in our collage. This could be at our local recycling shop, Earthlink, collecting cardboard boxes from a supermarket, or a walk in the bush around the campus to find seeds, leaves and other natural materials.These source materials will provide the inspiration for the rest of the week’s work.
Objectives
