Workshop: Ornate Sticking!
Poulomi Basu, Chimeras (detail), 2025–ongoing © Poulomi Basu
Who am I? Who would I like to be? Taking Poulomi Basu’s Chimeras collages as an inspiration, we invite you in this workshop to discover afresh your own archive of images – the photos on your mobile phone, for example – and to organise it creatively.
Following a brief introduction to the exhibition Poulomi Basu – Phantasmagoria and a view of the work Chimeras, the practical part of the workshop will be devoted to designing your own personal collage. Whether it’s an empowering self-portrait, a playful self-analysis or a colourful, personal look back at the year, you will create an ornate and powerful collage using glitter beads, feathers and your own photos.
This workshop takes place in German.
Admission: CHF 30.– (incl. material and exhibition admission).
Note: This workshop requires a minimum of five registered participants and is limited to a maximum of 15 people.
This event forms part of the exhibition Poulomi Basu – Phantasmagoria. Indian artist Poulomi Basu generates powerful imagery that occupies a world between reality and fiction. The exhibition combines photographs, film, virtual reality and an installation. The works centre on women from the Global South, indicating paths of self-empowerment and giving visibility to themes of exclusion and gender-based violence.
