Lunchtime Response: Collage, Collaboration and Community

Join Towner staff member Alison Hayes for a relaxed discussion and playful collage activity in The Ravilious Collection.  

We will look at the layered, spontaneous collages of John Piper and the measured, contained prints of Eric Ravilious. Taking inspiration from these artists, along with the cooperative nature of the artists on show, we will explore our own interpretations of landscape through the medium of paper, pattern and chance!  

While collaging, we will reflect on questions such as: what are the things we discover from each other while engaging in art spaces, and what can we learn about ourselves and the wider world when we create artworks together?  

All welcome - this is a drop-in, free event for all.  

Meet inside the Ravilious Collection     

We have a budget available to make this event as accessible as possible – this can include interpretation services or other access needs we can meet to enable you to participate.  

If you require access arrangements, please email programme@townereastbourne.org.uk two weeks before the event date so that we can book a service if needed. 

Alison currently works at Towner and studied Fine Art Sculpture at Brighton University where she made objects, films and installations that echoed her fascination with light, space and the inclusion of the ‘viewer’. She has a particular interest in making connections and collaborating through art and creativity.
