This found object and collage workshop is based on artist Daniel Ibbotson’s own experience creating his artwork for Personal Structures 2022. It will require for participants to bring something personal, to find something in the streets of Venice and then create a piece of work based on living or staying in the city. The artist will provide the basic materials which will allow the participants to create their own work.
Daniel Ibbotson came to Venice in March this year to create the artwork he presented in Personal Structures – Reflections. He lived in a small flat near the Rialto Bridge and during his four week stay he collected materials found around Venice. With this workshop the artist’s intention is to recreate his experience using methods he learned during his stay and create finished pieces. The theme will be centred through the eyes of inhabitants and visitors currently in Venice.
