WORKSHOP 1
This work was created via a series of prompts where participants had to remember a meaningful natural place on earth. They were then asked to design “planets” out of collage materials of topographical images of Earth and outerspace. They were then asked to write to observations around the collage imagery and craft a 10 line poem combining their remembrances of the natural world (I remember) and visuals from their collaged planets (Here I see).
