Assemblage and Collage Workshop

At this workshop, we get together with teachers to address the concept of kitsch through the artworks, and with a focus on our tastes, the impact of time on our tastes, and the evolution of beauty standards as a result of industrialization. With reference to a selection of the exhibited works, we reflect on and discuss the indicators of kitsch around us, and we question the concept of taste by touching on the rich use of the concept today. We create assemblages from bottle caps, magazine sheets, toy parts, plastic utensils, waste material, sequins, paillettes, beads, buttons, etc. and color them with neon or glitter paints.
