Our first project in Schönebeck got eleven children and young people excited about the collage technique. During the 2020 winter vacations, artist Elfi Nitze introduced them to various historical masters of collage – and they began their own experiments. At the Schönebeck YMCA, people snipped, glued, painted and cooked and ate in between. Together and individually, the participants explored the question “What makes me special?”. The journey took them from paper, brochures and packaging materials to objects with personal value, such as found objects or individual materials. The final exhibition in the large hall of the YMCA left parents and friends amazed – so many great collages had been created within a week!
