Why to come to learn modern mosaic in Slovenia?
We began our story in 2015 when we performed first workshop of modern mosaic for pensioner. After that we organised mosaic workshops and courses for all generations: children, children with special needs, young people till age 29, young people who dropped out of school, employed people over 45 years old, intergeneration, communities. We were surprised that all people felt enthusiastic about modern mosaic and we noticed personal changes in our participants. The deepening relationships started and after three years we became a big modern mosaic community that is still growing every day.
In a few years we really got a lot of experiences in organizing this kind of workshops and big projects too. As we are aware of really good results, we would really like to share this with the whole world, also with you.
Why modern mosaic inspires people so deeply?
- Connecting people with themselves and others – Team buildings
- Increasing social network
- Meditation
- Surprise over the final product at the end when all the puzzles come together
- Personal growth – because of the slow process people can observe themselves and their patterns of personality became visible to them – because of that personal changes are possible
What will we do the whole week?
The main work will be experience, so we will create modern mosaics. First we will make mosaic all together in a group on the mesh and then we will apply that mosaic on a wall and finish it there. After that every participant will make his own mosaic which he or she will take home. Of course we will talk also about theory and technology of making modern mosaics. We will take some time to see some mosaics in our community too.
Mentor of the course: Urška Ambrožič Potočnik
Urška started with modern mosaic art around 10 years ago, when she and her husband bought an old house and started to renovate it. She felt very strong creative inspiration, so she started to do ambiental mosaic in her toilet, bathroom, stairs,… Few years later they have begun with creative renovation of ambients under the brand Rokodel’c. Now she runs a different types of mosaic courses in cooperation with our organization Ljudska univerza Radovljica and we did a lot of successful mosaic projects in communities with people who live here.
