Assemblage: Memories on Canvas

Pera Adult

  • January 19, 2024 / 19:00

In the workshop inspired by the section titled "Memory of Objects" of the exhibition Souvenirs of the Future, objects that have been broken and lost their function over time but contain memories are transformed into works of art. Everyday objects gain a new form by using tile motifs, which are at the center of the exhibition. Participants use old objects as well as materials such as fabric and papier-mâché in the three-dimensional composition they create on canvas.

Note: Participants can bring their objects with a story or broken objects that have lost their function to use in the workshop.

Duration: 90 minutes

The wind blows, rubbing against my legs made of layers of metal and wires, swaying the leaves of grass that have shot up from the cracks in the tarmac, and going off to the windows that look like the eyes of dead children in the wrecked buildings that seem to be everywhere as far as the eye can see.

José Sancho does not conceal the voluptuousness of his female torsos; he highlights it. These torsos are symmetrical from front, but on the other hand, from the side, the juxtaposition of concave and convex forms creates dynamism.
