About Workshop

In this age of image overload, how can we use our own photographs to create meaningful stories related to our memories and self-healing?

Through this photo collage workshop, we can actually utilize all of our personal photos and private items, to explore and express our inner world, and create meaningful works of art that belong to us.

The entire two-hour workshop covers the complete process from basic introduction to practical creation, adding decorations, and completing the work. I hope this outline can provide you with comprehensive guidance and inspiration for your collage art workshop:

i) Introduction: Photo collages from style and history. Introduction to the materials and tools needed for photo collages, such as scissors, adhesive, and various photographs, fabric and magazine tear sheets.

ii) Planning and composition: Exploring the concept of visual storytelling and techniques and organizing the collage layout, including Grids, focal points, and balance.

iii) Applying techniques for layering and arranging the cut-out photographs to create dynamic compositions and finishing touches.

iv) Exploring additional elements that can enhance the collage, such as personal items, handwritten captions, decorative elements, or mixed media.

v) Tips for adding final touches and creating a polished look.

vi) Sharing and feedback: A group discussion or presentation where participants can share their finished collages.

* Participants must be at least 4 years old.
