Kinetic Illustration: Drawing Across Space and Time
Kinetic Illustration: Drawing Across Space and Time
Free!
In this workshop, participants will explore drawing and illustration across substrates that can be moved, rearranged, and recombined to make new images or new configurations. This type of artwork is exemplified by the mural "Right of Way", which artist Amanda Pittman designed to have an "open door" and "closed door" configuration. Workshop participants will explore examples of such artworks, and they will then create their own kinetic illustration using paper either folded or cut into cards for exploring this concept.

About the artist -
Amanda Pittman is a lifelong Wyomingite who graduated from the University of Wyoming in 2011 with her Bachelor of Arts degree in anthropology, with a focus on biological anthropology. As long as she can remember, she has been a visual artist, sewist, and maker; she now primarily does illustration and graphic design. She has done costume design for four productions for Relative Theatrics in 2022 and 2023. Her artwork is inspired by the natural landscape of Wyoming, history, science fiction, and speculative fiction. Her ancestors traveled from what we now know as New Mexico to Rawlins to work on the railroad.
