Creating Characters with Visual Identity: Collage Illustration through Shape, Gesture & Story
Paper collage offers a tactile, instinctive, and unexpected approach to visual storytelling. In this hands-on workshop, illustrator Federica Zancato guides participants through the process of creating original characters using collage — starting from basic shapes and textures and moving toward fully realized figures with personality and backstory.
Participants will explore:
how silhouette can define a character;
the importance of gesture and posture in visual expression;
how to use cut paper, color, and material choices to convey identity and emotion.
