AT KOLAJ FEST NEW ORLEANS<\/p>\n

Lucy Julia Hale<\/h2>\n

Kolaj Fest New Orleans is a multi-day festival and symposium about contemporary collage and its role in art, culture, and society, July 12-15, 2018. Learn more, see an overview of the program, and register to attend HERE<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Collage Making Space at Kolaj Fest New Orleans<\/a> will host a number of workshops and demonstrations. From Cave Spring, Georgia, Lucy Julia Hale is a visual artist, social activist, and career development expert who serves as a passionate agent supporting the dignity and well-being of vulnerable populations. Hale will demonstrate a Quick and Dirty Collage technique and talk about it can inform an artist’s collage making. This stripped down “quick and dirty” collage exercise offers a concentrated experience of the power of the medium. Hale guides participants in minimalist collage making in which collagists intervene on a scene using a small number of fragments.<\/p>\n

At Kolaj Fest New Orleans<\/a>, Hale looks forward to “understanding and enjoying the peace of their pieces.” She offers this prayer, “Like our Dada forebears in the nineteen teens, we artists in the twenty teens, the last minutes left on the Doomsday clock, we also have collage as a balm to decoct from scoops of happenstance mixed with pieces of our subconscious archives,” she writes. “Let’s keep making these potions to keep us lucid in spite of the ticking and able to see more than we have been told to see.”<\/p>\n
