Hooked on the Internet: Shaped Collages
Thursday, October 1, 1:30-3pm

Inspired by the way Jordan Homstad uses collage to grapple with conflicting feelings about the internet, workshop participants will create shaped collages that explore their own relationship to a contemporary issue or experience.
By collecting, layering, juxtaposing, and reimagining images, participants will be invited to explore their chosen subject matter from new perspectives. Some collage materials will be provided, and participants are encouraged to bring their own printed images that connect to the theme they wish to explore.
