With its lovely deckled edges, toothy texture and thickness, it’s hard not to swoon when you see a stack of handmade paper. Join us for this Make+Take and walk away with your very own pack of elegant handmade paper. Give them away as a thoughtful gift or keep them for yourself (we know you’ll want to!).
Level: All levels welcome – no experience necessary
Registration closes January 9, 2024 and all materials are provided.
Registration includes all materials—just come ready to have fun! In addition, you may want to bring the following optional items for class:
Zofia Chamera earned her BFA in Interdisciplinary Sculpture at the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2020 and her MFA in Studio Art from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) in 2022. Chamera’s foundation is in traditional mediums such as clay, wax, and bronze, however she recently began exploring handmade paper and how it can be applied to sculpture. She is constantly pushing the structural boundaries of this medium and with that challenging the conflict of fine art versus craft. While studying at PAFA, Chamera worked as the papermaking shop monitor and a graduate teaching assistant for figure modeling and many other courses. Her work has been shown in the National Sculpture Society Gallery in Manhattan, New York as well as local galleries in Baltimore, MD and Philadelphia, PA. Most notably, she was selected as one of seven artists to participate in the Lucca Biennale 2022 Outdoor Exhibition in Tuscany, Italy. Learn more about her work at www.zofiachamera.com.
