Torn Harmony: The Echo Between the Pages is a creative workshop led by designer and art director Mario Lombardo. Participants will immerse themselves in an experimental process where magazines, photo books, and catalogues become raw material for new and unexpected compositions. Through tearing, layering, and combining pages, surprising connections between images, textures, and themes will emerge — moments where chance becomes a co-author.

“When two pages meet, their worlds begin to speak — creating visual poems, fragments, and spontaneous collages that tell new stories.” — Mario Lombardo

Who it’s for:

The workshop is suitable for graphic designers, photographers, visual artists, editors, art students, and anyone interested in experimentation as a creative method.

Participants will:‍_‍
- Explore how chance can become a tool for creation
- Learn to think visually through processes of deconstruction and reconstruction
- Experience the transformation of the familiar into something new and create their own series of collages
