What is the relationship between the ideal and the real in the creative process? In this workshop with exhibiting artist, Entang Wiharso we will explore how to generate poignant and provocative objects while incorporating glitter, iridescent acrylic paint and other bright and vibrant materials. Entang will introduce participants to Javanese shadow puppets while investigating what drives meaning and message in works of art. Participants will make their own puppets and flat sculptures using a variety of cutting techniques to create striking silhouettes while considering the use of distortion, simplification, and surface.
