PAPER THAT HEALS: PAPER COLLAGE AND WORDS

ART AND LITERATURE WORKSHOP

Theme for 2025: LOST AND FOUND

Led by: Božena Končić Badurina and Olja Savičević Ivančević

March 25 – April 22, 2025, on Tuesdays, at 6 PM

Nova BAZA, Nova cesta 66

This workshop, entirely free of charge, is intended for persons of all ages, with any level of experience in creative writing and artistic expression, who live and/or work in Trešnjevka. We will meet five times for two hours to look into ''the healing power of paper'', in other words, we will be working on short prose forms, poetry, and the paper collage technique. This year our theme is Lost and Found, therefore we will focus on the search for objects that used to be important to us, but are not used any more, or that had an intimate meaning in our life but are not part of it any more. Our starting point are our own experiences, experiences of people that surround us, as well as those preserved in the virtual collection of the Trešnjevka Neighborhood Museum.

Participants’ works will be presented at a public presentation in the Nova BAZA Gallery and online. The results of the previous workshop editions can be seen here and here.

The application should be sent to blok@blok.hr by Tuesday, March 18, 2025, containing the following data: name, last name, year of birth, and a short motivation letter in which you can state what you currently do and what motivated you to apply. The number of participants is limited, and you will receive information about participation via email.
