Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Symbols and Images in Tarot / for the Enter the Room exhibition

Art workshops will focus on the medium of a game as a modern interactive art form. Creative work will emphasise the visual aspect of the chosen theme and the development of imagination. During the art work we will use drawing and painting techniques on paper while also exploring the potential of collage techniques. A series of workshops entitled Game Visual Style and Aesthetics will focus on the representation of two spheres – macrocosm and microcosm. We will begin by creating the macrocosm as a landscape or industrial scene, representing a vast landscape, a garden, the universe or an intimate space. This will be accomplished through experimental painting, using spots, drops and textures. After that, we will form human civilization and create avatars inspired by our inner imagination. These will blend human figures with various animal forms and natural elements, such as plants, mushrooms, mountains, volcanoes, wildflowers and other botanical species. In the Symbols and Images in Tarot workshop series, we will creatively explore the motifs of tarot cards, one of the oldest gaming and mystical mediums. Each participant will select one card to interpret in their own unique artistic work.

 

This programme is designed not only for adults and seniors, but also for their children and grandchildren as part of an intergenerational encounter. The workshops are also open to foreign visitors.
