In Bærum Kunsthall’s open workshop, children and families can explore collage as a technique. Here, you can cut, tear, paint, combine, and build up layers using different images, shapes, and colours.

Inspired by Frido Evers’ photographic landscapes, which are built up in multiple layers, you can paint your own landscape on transparent sheets and layer them together to create a single image. You can also combine your landscape with images, figures, and symbols from Shana de Villiers’ exhibition I am Frankie, and you still love me. The exhibition takes a monster’s bedroom as its starting point and includes visual references to memes and other images circulating on the internet.

You can also choose from a wide selection of magazines and newspapers, with images and fragments to cut out and incorporate into your collage.

Experiment, play with layers, transparency, and different combinations, and see what new images and stories emerge.
