An immersive session to experience self-portraiture through concepts such as symmetry, planes, angles, multiplication, volume. All through a magical setting in which our reflection will be the protagonist.

It's not just what is written that matters, but also how it is written. The use of typography, color or its absence, the layout on the page or the combination with an image. These elements, among others, give written words nuances or even new meanings. Form communicates.

In this workshop we will play with the shape of letters, the arrangement of words and their interaction with images to create our own meanings.

Among illustrated albums there is a genre sometimes forgotten: the wordless picture book. These

stories help awaken our imagination, require us to sharpen our

observation skills and therefore promote visual education. They also give

autonomy to the child who cannot read or is in the process of learning.

In this session we will observe these stories without text to read their images and provide

our own interpretation.

Aquarium, The Wave, Crazy World, The Red Herring...

Both in art and in our everyday life we use metaphors. We say: "He's missing a

screw!", "He is a well of wisdom", "They are like two drops of water", .. We mix reality and

fantasy generating a rich and poetic language. Stories are no less, and in many of

them metaphor is used to explain concepts or ideas such as death, love, lack of

communication, hope, …

In this session we will see what metaphor is about through stories, images and games.

Memories, When Laughter Bloomed, ...

In recent years, a wide variety of revised classic tales have been published that

tell these stories from another point of view, placing us in a more

contemporary setting, telling us the unknown version of the fierce wolf, demystifying romantic

There are many common themes between the world of art and the world of childhood. The

connection with nature is one of them. Nature inspires us, connects us with

art from its first manifestations to the present day.
