About event
Come and celebrate November 17 creatively and you might learn something new not only about graphic design, state symbols, but also about yourself!
Graphic design is often found in the service of politics - it is part of the promotion of totalitarian regimes, but it can also be an important part of revolution. The visual representation of the state has a strong influence on us from our birth: the national flag and state symbols are something that also creates our identity.
In the workshop, these state symbols, which are often charged with strong emotions and enjoy with great seriousness, often even legal protection, we will subject it to analysis with the help of even Dadaist methods. Experimentation and improvisation will help us discover how these signs affect our consciousness and subconsciousness.
The workshop is suitable for different age categories – from older children, through adults to seniors.
Practical information:
90–120 min
Expect that we will be working with colors during the workshop, so wear appropriate clothing.
