Rested Futures: A Collage Workshop Led by Yannick Lowery
Introducing “futuring” as a communal exercise, visual artist Yannick Lowery will lead a workshop using paper collages to visualize our collective futures.
By reframing the theme of rest as an essential tool for future manifestation, participants will compose images that connect present duty to the future realm.
During this workshop, Lowery will share several collage techniques and provide insight into his practice while encouraging participants to develop their own methods.
Although collage materials and supplies will be provided, participants are encouraged to bring their own images dealing with rest and burnout.
Artist Bio: Yannick Lowery is an interdisciplinary artist based in Philadelphia, PA. Inspired by the cultural dynamism of his native New York and present hometown, his work explores the creations of illustrated proverbs, portents, and historical souvenirs to guide the viewer through cultural introspection and responsible, imaginative perpetuation. He parallels archival imagery and his photography to employ world-creation and compile instigative and investigative way-making devices through collage, animation, and sculptural works.
