Mixed Media Collage & Relief with Sarah Barzmehri

This engaging workshop invites participants to explore the creative possibilities of two- and three-dimensional art. We begin with collaging with a focus on composition, balance, and essential design elements. Through an intuitive and experimental approach, participants will work with line, plane, and volume to create dynamic relief artworks.

The workshop emphasizes design principles while encouraging personal expression, material exploration, and creative risk-taking. Participants will experiment with layering, depth, and surface manipulation while developing their own visual language through mixed media processes.

Workshop Objectives

• Introduce participants to mixed media collage techniques.

• Encourage creative expression using various materials.

• Develop skills in integrating collage with drawing.
