The first session of our Creative Encounters will focus on the artwork The Blue House (Das blaue Haus, 2000) by Edi Hila. We will dive into the topics of home, architecture, and the emotional structures around us, through the mediums of collage, mixed media (paper, textures, reclaimed materials) and fluid markers painting.
We will look at how places and buildings can hold memories and feelings. Inspired by Hila’s artworks, which show broken, changing, or half-remembered spaces, participants will be invited to create their own mixed-media collage, asking what ‘home’ means to them.
The practice will be based on simple shapes, textures and pieces of paperand as for the painting element, we will use markers and water brushes: a fun, beginner-friendly technique where marker lines can be turned into soft washes of colour. These watery effects can look like fading walls, weathered surfaces, or dreamy memories.
.At the end of the workshop, individual collages will be assembled into a shared installation – a ‘City of Emotions’ – where each participant’s vision of home contributes to a larger, collective narrative.
As this workshop is part of a series, participants are invited to come back to the other sessions on 26.04 and 24.05 to discover new artworks and painting techniques.
