Promote your practice! DIY Graphic Design for developing your visual identity as an artist.

April 20 @ 12:00 am - 2:00 pm BST

Details and description:

This workshop will concentrate on methods of sharing and promoting your creative practice whilst defining your artistic identity. We will be exploring how we can use graphic design as a DIY tool to push the presentation of our work into new formats and communicate what defines our practice to others.

Expect hands-on making, an introduction to DIY graphic design, and playful techniques inspiring new ways of hand picking and reworking your creative content to produce printed ephemera and promote your work! 

The aim is that you will finish the workshop with a small family of printed objects that could be developed further as promotional and or supplementary material to your work, a visual manifesto or aesthetics for online platforms.

Participants are required to bring 10 A4 print outs that they feel best reflect their creative practice. These could be images of: your work, work spaces, portfolio screenshots, process photos and/or visuals from research or inspiration. You will be using these images as a core material for collage and image making to create posters, badges and stickers to communicate your practice in new and imaginative ways. 

This workshop is aimed at artists thinking about defining their outward facing visual identity and hoping to share and promote their work through graphic design and print. This is an all-analogue workshop open to complete beginners to graphic design!
