In this workshop, we will experiment with acrylic mediums to create colorful translucent landscapes that are inspired by Pesce’s use of inventive nontraditional materials.

In this two-day workshop, students will create a sculpture inspired by the inventive nontraditional art of Pesce. We will design an organic object and infuse it with its own personality.

This collaboration will begin to demonstrate the intrinsic relationship between music and dance.
