PHand marbled paperlease join the Motley Lab for a hands-on workshop on the art of paper marbling, led by artist Natalie Stopka. Marbled paper is the application of aqueous pigments to paper, creating complex patterns like polished marble; sheets decorated this way have historically been used in the bindings of books, and are now found more generally in textiles, decorative hangings, and abstract art. All are welcome.

 

Where:      Academic Building West, Room 6107

Natalie Stopka specializes in the historical form of the art, using botanical pigments called ‘lakes.’ Visit her studio at nataliestopka.com.
