Digital Collage Workshop

Grace Wood, Lay Down, 2019, digital collage on fabric

The invention of the computer and software products such as Adobe Photoshop saw a radical new development in artistic production. It brought with it completely new ways of creating images. Digital collage was one of the new methods made available to artists who could now work completely within a digital space.

Contemporary artists such as Lucas Blalock, Jodie Whalen, Rachel De Joode, Marian Tubbs, and Daniel Gordon, among many others are today utilising digital software along with various digital printing methods to create collage-based artworks that either end up as prints and videos, or part of larger installations.

In week 5 & week 6, we will be talking about some of the contemporary artists making digital collages today, and the various printing methods they use to create their artworks.

You will also learn how to make your own digital collage using Adobe Photoshop.
