About this course:

In this mixed media course, students experiment with collage as a means of exploring autobiographical content. The fragmentary and layered medium is well-suited for dealing in memory, reflection and narrative. With photographs, photocopies, maps, writings, and other significant items, students create personally meaningful new works.
