WORKSHOP // Collage & Stitch

Immerse yourself in the experience of collage art and hand-stitching on paper. During a relaxed two hour morning session, you will be guided by the artist Judit Sin Hache, who will introduce you to different collage tips and tricks as well as to different hand stitching techniques. During the session you will also have the opportunity to experiment with a wide range of materials for you to create your very unique piece of art.

‘Collage and Stitch’ will provide an opportunity to connect with your creative side, whether you’re familiar with the technique or a total beginner, and all skill levels are welcome. All materials will be provided for the session, however, we do encourage you to bring along any prints/papers/textures you’d like to work with and add to your composition.

Judit Sin Hache is a Spanish born artist based in Edinburgh. She graduated from Heriot-Watt University in 2021 studying fashion design. After completing her degree, she became immersed in collage making, art she was introduced to during her childhood by her dad, who was her early source of inspiration.

She describes her work as the materialisation of her inner realities through paper manipulation. Highly inspired by the intricacy and symbolism of surrealism and her own personal experiences. Her compositions are a combination of a variety of sources: magazines, books, photography, paints, fabrics. Although what makes her collages very distinctive is her stitching details. Her sewing machine plays a major role throughout her creative process. ‘There’s something about sewing on paper that is very fulfilling and makes me feel deeply connected to my work’.
