In autumn 2021, a workshop The Alchemy of [Painting] was held at the Chair of Painting at the EKA.
Inspired by a still life of strange parts and wet preparations, the aim was to open up the concept of alchemy from the point of view of painting and using the tools of painting. In addition to the practical work, there were lectures and discussions on phenomen of alchemy from the perspectives of art, literature, music and film, on a timeline from the Middle Ages through popular culture to the present day.
The paintings were created using Cobra water-based oil paints from Royal Talens.
