A class combining art and poetry using wax and plaster as mediums to explore emotions and self-expression.
Like Art, Poetry invites us to feel emotion. Like Art, Poetry can be undefined, raw, suggestive, free and magical. Words and images tumble together, tussling among the scarlet and golden leaves of our thoughts, our vivid memories. Forgotten feelings. Dreams. Silent secrets. Blood red rage and whispered desires. Art and Poetry co-exist. Words and colors. Stanzas and brushstrokes. Verses and imagery…
This is why we have created this class. Petra and I welcome you to a world where words expand and art holds space for the emotion and beauty within all of us. By pairing the two, we can express more of ourselves. We can experience our art on a deeper level and unleash both our shadow and our light.
Wax and Plaster are the perfect mediums for such work. Luminous and obscure. Translucent and opaque. Liquid and austere. Like our inner workings and the energy of our being, these materials can ebb and flow, allowing us to explore a tactile and intuitive way of art making.
