When I began to look into what I would offer to the clients of Rose Cottage for their last workshop I realised that we had only worked in 3D once at the beginning with clay. With 3D as my starting point I looked again at the Meeting me at MOMA workshop matrix system for some ideas. After a bit I decided to investigate some of the techniques of paper manipulation. There are so many…in the end I created a technique board with some of the main ways of working with paper that I thought would be easy enough to do for the clients in Rose Cottage. See image below.
As you can see I grouped the variations of the techniques using different colour for each grouping. Colour was going to play a large part in the inspiration for this workshop.
