Recollection - A Mixed Media Workshop
Recollection is an informal mixed media workshop led by Holly O'Brien and Rachael Ryder building on their collaborative residency at Studio Pavilion.
About Recollection - A Mixed Media Workshop
This informal workshop led by curators Holly O’Brien and Rachael Ryder will build on their residency at Studio Pavilion exploring projection and moving image as methods for community engagement, self-reflexivity and storytelling.
In this workshop, we will collect stories and objects to collectively produce visual, mixed media responses to a collection of anonymous slides. We will collaboratively explore the potentials for projection, through writing, drawing and collage.
After viewing our in-house slide collection, participants will be asked to develop a visual response to a slide using mixed media (writing, images, drawing). The workshop will act as a test site of collaboration between workshop leaders and participants responding to reading and research which informs the theoretical basis of HO.RR.
The workshop will take place from 2pm to 4pm on 14 August. The workshop is free and all are welcome but registration is essential. Please register via eventbrite
Participants are asked to bring along an object or a photograph that reminds them of home.
