In this workshop, Trash Talk, Geanna will introduce students to working with non-traditional materials to build layers. Students will broaden their concepts of suitable materials to be upcycled for their projects, creating art using non-conventional methods while reducing their ecological footprint.
The workshop will introduce the concept of "Trash Art," covering techniques and tips from idea to completed artwork. Materials included in the workshop fee include broken jewelry, left over wall paper, old toys and more. Students may bring their own items to be incorporated into their Trash Art project, especially those that hold personal significance.
Shadow boxes and canvases will not be provided. Students wishing to create a shadow box or canvas must supply their own, otherwise materials are included in the workshop fee.
