Catherine Plaisance\u2019s practice is characterized by an inquiry dealing essentially with the aesthetics of catastrophe. “My collage and photographic techniques are closely related: slightly disquieting images in which the landscape unfolds in a threatening manner, referencing an unleashing of the elements,” writes the Montreal, Quebec artist. “Illusions of perspective are used to create vertigo and surprising foregrounds. The humans in these stagings are not victims of wild landscapes, we have the impression that they provoke them by incantations and ritual dances.” During this workshop, Plaisance will demonstrate her varied approach to collage. She will make a presentation on how she uses puzzle pieces, embroidery, acrylic paint, iridescent medium, and other materials to create stunning textures and compositions. She will also lead participants in the making of a pop-up collage that can be seen from both sides. Participants will build a theme on a duality, two different styles, two different subjects or a different material era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
