Join us at The Green Space for a 3-hour linocut workshop. Christina Darras will guide you in creating your own artwork using a reduction linocut technique. Christina will provide you with all the materials for carving and printing. Also, will give you plenty of inspiration from various artists who use linocut as their language of expression and references for material sources and books.
So, have a lovely brunch somewhere local, and come along to explore creative ways with linocut.
About the artist: Christina Darras is a multidisciplinary artist and designer. Her practice revolves around identity, non-identity, value and failure, and a deceiving cuteness. She employs colour as a non-verbal language to communicate emotions. Darras’s art practice expands over many mediums, including painting, drawing, printmaking, embroidery, knitting and installations. Her primarily tactile and lengthy processes convey a meditative and solitary practice. Christina has studied painting at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and printmaking at Central St Martins in London and recently completed a Master of Contemporary Art at the Victorian College of the Arts in 2021 and graduated with a first-class honours degree. She is also a certified Yoga teacher. She lives and works in Mentone with her partner Nikos and their dog Mousou.
