Viewing the world indirectly offers us a unique opportunity to communicate ideas and emotions in ways that move beyond the usual representation of a subject. Whether our inspiration takes root in grand landscapes or the smallest of microscopic organisms, the possibilities are endless when we examine the world from diverse perspectives.
This online workshop gives participants the skills to identify key abstract elements and skills to create compositions that bear little or no resemblance to the subject at hand. As we explore how metaphor relates to nonfigurative images, we effectively uncover the best approaches for realizing our personal visions, delving into techniques such as selective focus, multiple exposure, reflection, intentional camera movement, light and shadow, and context.
Through real-time presentations, group critiques, guest artist talks, portfolio reviews and weekly assignments that can be completed anywhere that inspires; students will develop confidence to create abstract images that reach beyond conventional graphic form to achieve distinctive poetic representation.
A link for the Zoom class meeting will be emailed to the attendees about one week prior to the start date. Please read the instructions included in the email.
