During this 5 Week Course, we will be looking at ways of using collage and how we might combine it with other media including drawing, stitching and using digital processes to create a unique series of collages.We will be taking inspiration and finding starting points from the work of a group of pioneering artists including; Hannah Höch (Germany), Barbara Kruger (USA), Maria Berrio (Colombia), Betania Ruttia (Paraguay) and Magali Lara (Mexico).During the final week of the course, we will be creating a display of the work produced, sharing experiences and producing constructive reviews of each other’s work.Basic materials will be provided, but it will be useful for you to bring along a sketch book to make notes and to record ideas and materials you may want to use in your artwork.

Course Tutor: Sarah John

Sarah is a practising ceramics and fine artist and is a regular tutor at Exeter Phoenix. Observation of human and natural form (in both 2D and 3D media) has remained central to her interests. Sarah focuses on learning ‘ways to see’, that are key for expressing the world of form around us, and on sharing skills and techniques in an informal atmosphere, which bring out the best creative ideas.
