Concept

Step into the world of contemporary art by becoming a living masterpiece! In this dynamic workshop, we explore creativity by making fantastical masks and costumes using a mix of materials. From paper mâché to textured fabrics—and even everyday items like cardboard—we experiment, invent, and let our imaginations run wild. Along the way, we learn basic sewing and mending techniques to bring our wearable art to life. The week ends with a dazzling Friday runway show, where we proudly showcase our creations for friends and family!
