Colors of Nature: Lino Printing

Pera Enabled

In this workshop, we take our inspiration from the many trees that dress up in a variety of colors as their roots cover their earth and their leaves reach for the sky. We imagine we are walking through a forest, and we design trees that come alive in our minds as we use acrylic paints and the technique of lino printing.

Following the instructor-guided tour of the 17th Istanbul Biennial, this workshop, designed for students with special needs, aims to help these students develop hand and eye coordination and fine motor skills.

The Greek god Apollo and his son Asklepios presided over the realm of medicine and healing. Apollo was also the god of light and sun, whose solar symbolism and association with medicine would become linked to Christ the Physician, and the resurrected.
