Mark Making Workshop

Last week I was facilitating a workshop for the foundation students here at Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology, Bangalore. The workshop was about Mark Making with more focus towards fundamentals of composition in visual communication. Here are some of the classroom images, student's work and glimpse of the exhibition by students at the end of two weeks intense workshop.

:)  And, here we are posing for a group photo after the workshop exhibition. All happy faces as it was a fun workshop and we didn't realise how the two weeks passed so quickly. All the best to these energetic and enthusiastic students for their future learning.

Visual Thinking Workshop

Last week I was facilitating a workshop on Visual thinking with our Foundation students here at Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology Bangalore. Here are some of the classroom images that showcase their thinking and construction of meaningful images. We had great time brainstorming, interacting, ideating, applying various thinking tools and making meaningful images during this two week session.

:) And we managed to pose for this group photo at the end!
