You can participate in at least one workshop directly and synchronously. The maximum number of participants in each workshop allows everyone to participate in at least one workshop. However, asynchronously you will be able to participate in all the workshops, as explained below.
1. Synchronous: broadcast live through a platform enabled for it. In this way, it will be possible to participate live, in the different workshops; its time is accurately determined and carried out through various video conferencing applications.
2. Asynchronous: Once the workshop is done, all the material and instructions will be shared to participate (most of the documents that you can listen to, read or view at any time and that are accessible in various places on our web platform).
It is proposed to create a series of micro-actions of artistic intervention in the urban landscape that allow us to activate mechanisms of reflection on the presence of nature in cities, stimulating new re-readings and procedures to relate to our immediate surroundings. The proposals are presented as performative actions of resistance, promoting creative processes that embrace an ethic of care and reinforce our active and transforming presence as educators and artists.
Weaving / Carmen Montoro Cabrera
The proposed workshop starts from the act of spinning and weaving as a fundamental tool through which to build a collective artistic installation.
From the action of weaving we will build our web, as if it were a spider web. Concepts such as the appropriation and delimitation of spaces from the frameworks built and the possibility of transmitting collective artistic messages, with simple tools, achieving a work of artistic and aesthetic value is the fundamental objective of the workshop.
We will mix parallel actions to build the message and provide content and message to our intervention.
Creative practices in papermaking (paperart) / Jim Lorena
Basic notions will be taught in a theoretical and practical way, of the procedures used for the creation of artistic objects in the paper-making process.
Handmade paper and paper art are techniques that allow us to create an idea, develop it and finish it wet, providing textures, colors, lines, spots and delimited shapes, impossible to achieve with other techniques. Paperart is the technique by which the work is built during the paper-making process.
Working with different fibers and colored pulps, we create the ideal supports for both artist books - object books.
In this course the students will understand and be trained in the procedures to carry out a personal project.
