“Our chosen families” with Mathilde Cameirao
Intergenerational workshop, from 6 years to infinity
Using Jagna Ciuchta’s exhibition as a starting point, and the different family ties explored therein, participants will be able to create photos of their own families, chosen from enlarged old black and white photos, which will be cut out, broken down and recomposed with other fictional or real characters, using the colour yellow as a developer or a mask. Maurizio Anzeri’s embroidery on old photos could also be a source of inspiration for these family portraits.
For those who wish, it is possible (and even strongly encouraged) to bring in personal or magazine photos, in colour or black and white. They can be photocopied if you wish, so that they can be cut out and reused in the collages.
