symbollage step by step

Step 1 | Introduction & Examples

The workshop starts with an introduction, examples and reflection. Working on a Symbollage is a mindful process. Participants often have the intention to grasp, embrace or release a life event or chapter. If nothing comes to your mind, you will enjoy the process by working intuitively.

Step 2 | Preparation

Download and print a set of black and white symbols. You can also use photographs, personal notes or even old letters. There is no right or wrong. You will need scissors and glue to put the collage together.

Step 3 | Creation

Creating the Symbollage is a contemplative and intuitive process.

Choose symbols to fit the theme of your collage, cut them, arrange the composition, glue and colour at the end.
