Dig into your personal memories to create works of art! Guided by artist Grace Taylor, use found materials to create memory collages/décollages. Collage means to combine and layer materials, while décollage means to tear or rip materials away. As the pieces develop, the artwork will become a representation of our memories, distorted, details missing, yet the memory remains in our minds as our own interpretations.
