Join exhibiting artist Julie Scifo for a fun and playful zine-making workshop.
Drawing on surrealist party games, this session invites you to unlock the subconscious and embrace happenstance in artmaking.
Participants will explore a variety of visual mediums and collaborate to create a zine (DIY magazine) from concept to curation to finished product. The workshop celebrates the unexpected and shows that inspiration can be found in the most surprising places.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Julie Scifo is an artist based in Lithgow who explores how personal narratives echo collective experiences, through dominant themes of nostalgia, memory and personal history.
