Collage can sometimes be seen as just a 2D art form, but adding
texture and depth can add another dimension to a work, offering
perspective, depth of field, a greater level of realism and sometimes
some trickery of the eye.

Who will be Teaching?
Yianni (he/him) is a Trend Forecaster by day and collage artist by night. Starting off in his 20s as a fashion designer, Yianni ran his own label and even showed at Australian Fashion Week. During the pandemic he discovered a love of collage and how it could help him clear his mind.
In doing so he ended up showing at the Postcard Show (Linden Gallery), the Queer My Head show (Dax Centre as part of Midsumma, which had a huge impact on him), and more recently the Men on Men show (The Laird). Now Yianni starting to share his love of collage with others to help them realise the possibilities.
