Collagraphy | Playful Textures

Wondering what to do with the fabric scraps around your house? Give them a new burst of life through our collagraphy workshop! 

Draw inspiration from Pacita Abad’s dynamic compositions and learn the art of collagraph printing. Create textured printing plates by collaging recycled fabrics and found objects. Apply ink onto the plates and arrange them into your desired composition. Transfer your design onto paper to reveal a unique print that echoes the artist’s experimental approach to colour and material. 

Recommended for ages 12 and above. 

Participants are encouraged to bring fabrics of different textures for this workshop. 

Learning Takeaways:

• Understand the principles of creating a collagraph plate and printing with it
• Experiment with layering materials to create a textured printing plate that varies in depth
• Explore bold and contrasting colours in printmaking, inspired by Pacita Abad’s rich palettes
