Gelli Plate Printing – Collage & Painting Masterclass

Social Art Lab Berlin invites you to a masterclass with Agnieszka Karaś

Friday 26th April 19:30
studio nagelneu | Hermannstr. 103, 12051 Berlin

WHO IS THE COURSE FOR: the course is addressed to literally everyone: for those who doubt their artistic abilities (gelli plate will heal it after the first print!) and for those who have high artistic confidence, working mainly in the field of paper art, mix media and analog collage and want to expand their knowledge with another new technique. Here imperfections are perfection, because gelli plate print can surprise and sometimes, despite the intended effect, we get something “failed”, but even more interesting and beautiful than we planned.

OBJECTIVE OF THE COURSE: making a two-layer print and decorating it with the use of self-made stencils and stamps as well as items that are “at your fingertips” in the city and in nature

SOURCES OF INSPIRATION: We will open our sensitivity to the beauty of everyday unnoticed textures and forms of everyday objects and what is around us
