Exquisite Corpse Collage
Coined by cubist artists Braque and Picasso, the term “collage” comes from the French word coller, or “to glue.” This technique of assembling and glueing different images has been used widely across different art movements and is still popular in contemporary art today.
In this workshop we will be creating an "exquisite corpse" (a game played by the surrealists) where we will create a figure using collaged images from magazines, books and a variety of papers. We will be learning about ways to cut and layer different papers, image composition and how to use colour and texture to create an interesting artwork. Collage is a fun and highly creative process that is sure to become a favourite art making practice!
