Unfolding Fragments: Collage Workshop

Free Registration

This collage workshop, led by artist Charlie Perez-Tlatenchi, reframes the practice of collaging as a way to conceptualize how communities are structured. Taking inspiration from Sunset Park, the neighborhood where the artist grew up, we wonder how the act of collaging can embody the experience of living in an urban environment where many fragmented, yet distinctive perspectives coexist in a close-knit space.

For this collective collaging workshop, participants will make individual “pages” that will be woven together into one book-like form. The form of the book, paired with the practice of collaging, speaks to the exterior and interior experiences of a singular human living within an eclectic community.

Materials and supplies will be provided by Canal Projects, but participants are welcome to bring their own.

Practical Information:

The workshop will be hosted in our ground level gallery, which is accessed by a small flight of stairs or an ADA accessible lift. Please reach out to us@canalprojects.org with any questions.

This event has limited capacity, only the first 20 people to register will be added, everyone else will be put on the waitlist.
