We all have memories that hold special significance for us; some are cherished and some are important for other reasons. This class will explore the use of various types of collage to make a tactile artistic response to our memories. In the process we will engage with experimental techniques involving the use of various papers, textiles and paints.
What to bring: Week 1:
A small object that holds significant memories. It might be a piece of jewelry, a photograph, an old toy, or a special gift. You will be drawing the object, not placing it into the collage, so it will not be damaged.

Any drawing materials you already have.
Week 2 onwards:
Any paints you already have.
If you have them, your our own collection of collage materials such as textiles, interesting papers and so on. Do not bring magazines or glossy printed images.
Materials supplied:
