Dieser Kurs vermittelt die Grundlagen und Techniken des realistischen Zeichnens mit dem Ziel, Motive möglichst naturgetreu wiederzugeben. Dabei stehen präzise Formen, korrekte Proportionen, Perspektive sowie die differenzierte Darstellung von Licht, Schatten und Texturen im Mittelpunkt. Durch gezielte Übungen werden sowohl die Beobachtungsgabe als auch das technische Können geschult.

Besondere Bedeutung kommt der Arbeit mit Kontrasten und der Ausarbeitung von Details durch feine Linien und Strukturen zu, um die Realität überzeugend auf das Papier zu übertragen. Der Kurs umfasst Demonstrationen des Dozenten, individuelles Feedback sowie gemeinsame Besprechungen der Arbeiten. 

Ziel ist es, die Freihandzeichnung, die Linienführung und die Fähigkeit zum genauen Abzeichnen nachhaltig zu verbessern.

Plongez dans l’univers créatif de la mode durable et découvrez comment donner une nouvelle vie à des vêtements oubliés.

Cet atelier d’introduction à l’upcycling vous invite à explorer les bases de la transformation textile : apprendre à observer, imaginer, couper, assembler et de redonner de la vie a vos vêtements.

En partant de pièces existantes (chemises, jeans, t-shirts, etc.), chaque participant/e conçoit et réalise un vêtement ou accessoire personnalisé, en combinant design, créativité et techniques de couture.

Aucune expérience n’est nécessaire, seulement l’envie de créer et de repenser la mode autrement. Ensemble, nous apprendrons à valoriser ce que nous avons déjà, à expérimenter et à affirmer notre style tout en respectant la planète.
