As we prepare to mark the birthday of the trees, explore new ways to create art from paper. Taking inspiration from the songs and ceremonies of Tu B'Shevat featuring flowers, birds, and the seven species of the Land of Israel, this workshop explores unconventional ways to think about paper in both 2D and 3D. Our guest paper artist, Marna Chester, will inspire us to curl, fold, pinch, crumple, roll, poke, tear and cut paper, to craft new shapes and dramatic effects.
Marna Chester has taught paper sculpture workshops at The Rye Arts Center, The Creative Center, Bellevue Hospital, The Brooklyn Brainery, and Au Papier Japonais in Montreal. She holds a BFA from Alfred University, and an MPS from Pratt Institute. Marnas work has also been exhibited at the Wild Bird Fund, Rye Arts Center, Voelker Orth Museum & Bird Sanctuary, on the television series, Gotham, and at The Italian Cultural Institute.
