Mixed media memoir workshop by Linda dubin Garfieldhttp in Philadelphia
Mixed media memoir workshop
I provide all materials and we decide on a topic. Participants make art and then we share at the end. This project incorporates my art and my former training an education in ed psych and counseling.
Nature nurtures and inspires me. I combine elements of nature, texture and design. I am intrigued by memory and what remains in our mind’s eye. My work reflects scenes from travel near and far. More than a report on how it was exactly, I am interested in my expressive and passionate response to the color and pattern of the landscape, experience or image. The fluid space of memory, influenced by time, place and experience, forms the foundation of content for my work. I merge aspects of experience and observations with imagined and remembered sensations to create non-objective work that reflects life and memory. My work has overlapping layers of color and space, shifting relationships with mark making that includes monotype, silkscreen, stencil, image transfer as well as drawing. Inspired by travel, I am creating visual memoirs which offer multiple meanings to the viewer.
My focus on the process, not the outcome, frees me to be experimental. Following my passion and living my dream energizes me to be productive and alive. I feel like I am now living out loud. I want to share that passion and joie de vivre with those seeing my work, triggering a memory or experience for the viewer.
