December Workshop: Literary Collage with Stacy Kirages
Friday, December 12th | 6 - 8 p.m.
In this session, participants will learn and experiment with different ways to approach collage-making through collaborative game play and poetry text
Anastasia “Stacy” Kirages, a Houston-based collage artist and zinester, explores themes of memory, history, nostalgia, and preservation. In her work, she utilizes found ephemera through collage and zine-making to reflect on her own family history and relationships, and to create fictionalized memories in new contexts. The artist earned a M.Ed in Reading Education from Texas Woman’s University and a BA in Art History from the University of Texas at Austin. Currently, she runs a monthly collage meet-up group with artist Chasity Porter called Scissors of Texas/Tijeras de Tejas and has also been a lead organizer for Zine Fest Houston (ZFH) since 2013. In addition to her work with ZFH, she volunteers with Black & Pink, Girls Rock Camp Houston, and Montrose Grace Place. Her work has shown nationally and internationally, which you can check out online at https://kllages.com/home.html
