In this workshop, participants have the opportunity to be creative in decorating paper balls. These balls are made from collected paper.
Each ball is made from 300-400 grams of paper by members of the Art Mirror Association. At the beginning of the workshop the participants will see the processing the collected paper (newspapers, magazines, notebooks) and how it is turned into a pulp and then shaped into a ball.
The process of drying paper balls takes 4-5 days and therefore at the workshops participants will have already dried balls ready to be used.
The balls made of recycled paper will be decorated with gold leaf, copper, according to the imagination of each participant.
At the end of the workshop, participants will take their recycled paper balls home.
