Do you remember as a child discovering treasures along the way? Sticks, buttons, pebbles or shells - miniatures from nature or everyday life of inestimable value? These small objects filled our pockets and our imagination - they became play companions and carriers of memories. In this workshop, we will tap into this "invisible" magic in things. Starting with a small collection, we will rummage for associations, emotions and personal fragments that stimulate our imagination and form the starting point for a small visual narrative. No previous knowledge is required. With registration, 20 euros (including materials)
