Paper as Subject and Media, workshop with artist Fidencio Fifield-Perez
Free and open to ages 13+, preregistration is required.

For Artist Fidencio Fifield-Perez, cutting paper is one of the first steps in expanding mark-making possibilities and generating ideas for subsequent series. In the workshop, participants are introduced to processes of manipulating paper, creating weavings, and making stencils. Participants will explore and expand their use of paper as substrate and matrix to create one-of-a-kind monotypes. Paper, x-actos, and other materials that participants will weave and collage will be provided.
