Make your own Paper
Why throw paper packaging away when it can be transformed into beautiful hand-crafted paper?
In this hands-on workshop, Zahra will show us how empty bags of flour, letters and even old receipts can be up-cycled to make new paper. We'll also experiment with adding natural colour, e.g. turmeric and more.
Saturday morning 10 - 13
language: English/Deutsch
Letterpress
Wir lassen uns vom Garten inspirieren und gestalten farbenfrohe Drucke. Dafür kombinieren wir Monotypie und Letterpress; wir zeichnen Formen, drucken Strukturen und setzen Buchstaben zu Mustern zusammen.
Die entstandenen Drucke fügen wir am Schluß zu einer Collage zusammen.
