Can different shades or contrasting colors used in a work convey different meanings and emotions? The workshop revolves around color themes and palettes that achieve a coherent look by bringing various colors together within a certain harmony. Inspired by PƎRⱯ Reverse, which transforms the given and opens up space for the speculative, the workshop invites a rediscovery of color palettes' creative uses, stepping outside traditional conventions. Participants use creative painting-collage techniques using color palettes derived from the dominant color textures of Pera Museum.

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.
Works by a large number of students from the Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo deal with current and often painful themes from the socio-political, economic and cultural reality, raising awareness, appealing, warning, opening issues and offering new interpretations.
The Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo was founded in 1972 as the first Academy of Fine Arts in Bosnia and Herzegovina and became one of the forerunners in Bosnian contemporary art.
