Termite TV Collective

Sam Jacona brings us a custom workshop: Watercolor Undercover - Saturday, May 23, 11AM - 2PM at Termite TV Studio

With Watercolor Undercover, we can connect to the sense of playfulness and spontaneity with TermiteTV. This is a workshop that creates a way to play with multiple different materials to use the spontaneous effect of water and the control of crayons or oil pastels to uncover something the artists likes to express. With that said, we are mending the two worlds of water and wax in a way that is similar to oil and water. Finding a way to mend them into a new way to create, design, story-tell.

The goal of this workshop is to show how different mediums can work together. Using oil pastels or crayons to make shapes and uncover them with watercolor. Using a predictable medium with a more unpredictable one. Materials will be provided and you're also welcome to bring your own.

We are especially proud to present this event as it's a program that includes first-time filmmakers and experienced professionals - community media in community!

"To mend an emotion is to practice the art of staying. It is the quiet, repetitive work of choosing to bridge the gap between where we are and where the light is," says master .art describing this piece (swipe left!), "I'm using scrap collage paper, fabric, beads, magazines, and type. In this piece, I picked someone who didn't want to get out of bed. But the sun, sunbeams and dreaming change my mood. I mended my emotions."
