the workshops in pictures

Perceiving with the entire body, our hands shape images. To get this feeling under their skin, from the very first beginning, we start pressing silverpaper on our faces, peeling those masks off again, decorating, painting them.
In general, we have to deal with three steps: perceiving; shaping an image of what we perceive; transforming it into an ornamental form.
Subsequently, we shape (ornamental) images, concious of the specific techniques and fields of application; separately as well as in cooperation.
Except for those that give you the feeling in general how we work, the pictures, gradually, will pass to the respective topic of the primer (abecedario).
