Need an escape? Let’s stop being so serious and dive into Surrealism in this fantasy-based collage class. You’ll learn about the origins of Surrealism, some of the amazing collage artists in the field, and the skills needed to create your own surrealistic collage.
We’ll do some surrealistic writing as an introduction to an open and creative image treasure hunt. There will be a wealth of printed materials provided to use for collage from old books to magazines, maps, and manuals, and you can bring in anything you’d like to individualize your work -- save up your magazines for this one! You’ll end up with at least one amazing unique collage
This is a series of three classes -- your learning will progress with each class and class size is limited, so we ask that registrants plan to attend all three classes.
Lessons & supplies are free, but advance registration is required.
Natalie Boburka is a mixed media artist known for working with natural and discarded materials. Her work is primarily conceptual and consists of several evolving series. Boburka works in a variety of media, expressing reactions to social, environmental, feminist, and political topics. She is often influenced by traveling and collecting images and objects from different geographical settings which she uses to represent impressions of locales with color, texture, and movement. Boburka has shown work in galleries and public spaces primarily in New York State since 2009. She recently founded “Arts Around Greenville” and is the Tour Director for the Arts Around Greenville Studio Tour.
