Co-Crafting-Club
Drop-in Workshop: Sensing as Drawing

With Meeting Lines (artistic collective / Marcos García Pérez and Carla Schliephack)

In this open workshop, participants will experiment with charcoal, stencil and collage techniques. Hands and movements will also be used, leaving shared marks on the paper. By laying down, smudging and sharing these marks, vibrant images will emerge. For each exhibition, the Co-Crafting Club introduces a new craft technique that ties in with the themes of the presentation. As with the Brücke artists, participants discover that creating collectively stimulates the imagination. Through teamwork, we discover how much fun it is to share and transform resources, ideas and materials.

This format is part of the FREI RAUM KUNST youth programme, which embraces multilingualism, provides support and encourages exchange between young people from all backgrounds.

No prior knowledge is necessary. Although the workshop will be mainly in German, we mention the languages spoken by the facilitators to make it more accessible. If you don’t feel confident in German, don’t worry — you can still take part.

Marcos García Pérez and Carla Schliephack make up the Berlin-based art duo Meeting Lines. Together, they investigate critical collective processes at the intersection of human/environment and self-education/art. To this end, they develop site-specific drawing practices that involve copying, improvising and playing. The reuse of materials is central to their arts education work as well as their artistic practice.

Marcos García Pérez studied fine arts at the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia and graduated from the UdK Berlin (Berlin University of the Arts) in 2020 in the Art in Context programme. Since then, he has worked as an independent artist and art educator.

After earning a B.A. in fashion design, Carla Schliephack was a master student in the Sculpture Department at the weißensee academy of art berlin, a programme she continues to promote. Through further training as a systemic coach, she now works as an art educator and freelance artist in Berlin.

We are committed to respectful interaction. Discriminatory behavior has no place at our events.
