Date: Saturday 4 September 2021, 3.30pm to 5pm
Venue: Online, ZOOM
Assemblage refers to art made by assembling different objects — often everyday items — scavenged by the artist. Despite the simplicity of the idea, assemblage art techniques are much more sophisticated than your ordinary art techniques.
This workshop is designed for teachers, parents, and students who are keen to learn assemblage art techniques and principals of aesthetics. It will also be greatly beneficial for students creating artworks for our recycled art competition to attend, as the use of waste and recycled materials will be discussed in the workshop.
Participants will also be creating their own Assemblage artwork using found objects and materials from home during the workshop. Come join us for a fun and hands-on workshop on Assemblage Art!
