Found Object Transformation: Perfectly-Imperfect Creations for Exploring Cultural Appreciation vs. Cultural Appropriation

Discover the beauty in flaws at  Found Object Transformation: Perfectly-Imperfect Creations for Exploring Cultural Appreciation vs Cultural Appropriation on Saturday, November 15, from 9 am-noon at the Wallace Hall Art House. In this 3-hour workshop open to artists and Texas-licensed therapists, participants will study and embrace the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-Sabi by transforming discarded objects into meaningful art. Through guided collage and sculptural processes, you’ll learn to honor imperfection and impermanence—turning what’s broken into something resilient and whole- while discussing the need for cultural competency in a world where we may not be aware that we are appropriating. 3 CE credits are awarded at the session’s close. INCLUDES CULTURAL COMPETENCY REQUIREMENTS FOR CE SEEKING LPCs! Most items will be provided, but artist participants may wish to bring additional objects from their home collection, including any broken or damaged semi-sentimental objects that may be a source of inspiration.
