Photo Collage workshop at Oriel Colwyn

Photo Collage workshop to complement our current exhibition Corpus|Delicti by Rolf Kraehenbuehl.

A special zine/newspaper making event, hosted by Rolf and Oriel Colwyn.

Saturday 14th June: 2pm - 5pm

TICKETS - £15

Using historic blueprints, which were used for the construction of the area’s promenades as a background for your collages, the subject is “seaside” in all its variety.

 Collage 2

Each person will create 1-2 pages of collage with the final output being a printed group newspaper, a copy of which will be produced for each participant and is included in the ticket price.

To expand our toolbox of visualisation strategies and techniques, we will be making a collage consisting of photographs, objects, papers, textiles and other materials.

Collage allows the layering of thoughts and materials, and to bring together and unify things which do or don’t belong together or, conversely, to dissect and separate elements and objects. Text can be used to further modulate meaning.

What you need to bring along:

  • All the materials you want to collage with. You can bring fabrics, textiles, colourful papers of all kinds etc, but each participant’s contribution should include photographs.
  • Photographs can be any type of photographic print or just simple photocopies or inkjets. Just keep the restrictions on size in mind. The final newspaper will be a broadsheet style, sized at 35cm x 50cm.
  • Please use your own images as this relieves any copyright issues when using appropriated images.
  • In order to make a newspaper, we will re-photograph each participant’s work to prepare the file for printing, so you can bring along 3d objects that can even cast a shadow when illuminated by a mobile phone torch or the like before being re-photographed.
