The collagraph is a print made from a collage of various materials, glued together on a matrix. The possibilities for textures, embossing or color overprinting offered by these two techniques are almost limitless, as they allow considerable experimentation. This is a good opportunity for beginners to learn how to make a print in a simple and playful way – especially if the student has no prior drawing experience – although the course can be useful also to the experienced traditional printmaker because it is a chance to open up to new fresh, exploratory and uncomplicated media and eventually mix them with own style and technique.
