Stick 'Em Up!
Come and join our collage collective every third Thursday from 5.30pm to 8pm. The first session is on 18 April. We explore imagery, modern and vintage, different paper types, glues, archival. Each session starts with an exploration of collage artists before we work within timeframes on different challenges - for example faces through to single cut collage.
The club is led by Rachel Grevatte and Anabelle de Gersigny.

Rachel Grevatte
In her historic Ludlow home studio Rachel transforms old, broken and discarded things into unique, playful pieces. Every item has a story and a history and is one of a kind. Her collages and objet d’art stimulate conversation, creativity and fun. In 2001 Rachel completed her art and teaching degree at Bretton Hall College, Yorkshire. As well as her own practice she has since worked with schools, colleges, community groups, museums and galleries. She founded her business Emily Found A Thing in 2008, combining her love of finding and reimagining. @emilyfoundathing
Anabelle de Gersigny is a British Mauritian writer/curator and the founder of Gather. She has a BA in Fine Art and an MA in Writing from the Royal College of Art, London. As part of her writing practice, she uses found imagery to create visual references within her narratives. Sometimes spliced and overlaid, the images often reference the post-colonial and island cultures, derivative of her own cultural heritage.
