Most of our pictures exist on either a digital display or as a mostly two-dimensional print. In this class, you’ll take your photos into the third dimension by incorporating embroidery and mixed media, expanding the depth and richness of their meaning and storytelling. Using a variety of creative methods — cutting, glueing, embroidery, photo transfer on fabric, letter embroidery, and more — you can create an intimate and unique object that better tells your individual, personal story. By exploring the surface of a print with different techniques and materials, a new story will arise. Through discussion, we'll examine the process of deciding when and how to hide, change, or emphasize the story of a picture. You’ll be introduced to different techniques using relatively simple tools like scissors, glue, needle and thread, a printer, some fabric — no embroidery skills are necessary.
