The Personal Project

To expand the imagination we recommend a personal project. You'll learn to flex some creative muscle and align your heart and mind with intuition for some powerful results. Take some time out of your multi-tasking schedule and try focusing 100% on your personal projects, even for a few hours a week. The assignment may lead to firing up your creativity.

As to a personal project, you may choose printmaking. Recycle your archived images. Select a class in photopolymer intaglio printmaking to translate the tangible and intangible. Collage work invites awareness.

In response to the quote “No art exists that isn't autobiographical” (from Quaderni Azzurri, or Blue Notebooks, by Aldo Rossi, the Italian architect and poet of the visible), RF approaches collages. "‘Oh, the webs we weave’, the title of a recent collage series and a double entendre, references an expression and pokes fun at our collective experience on the Web. A jumping off point for exploration and problem solving, images made with the mobile phone beg the question: What kind of art can we make with images shot on a basic technological device - our smartphones?" And what can we ultimately do with these images to make art?
