Sharjah24: A Picasso-inspired workshop at the 41st Sharjah International Book Fair (SIBF) is enabling young visitors to discover new ways to look at the world. The Cubism art workshop hosted at SIBF 2022, targeting children aged 8 and above, aimed to teach young ones unique ways to turn simple drawings into artworks in the Cubist style.
The workshop host demonstrated how to use a ruler to convert the images to present a new visual reality that challenges traditional notions of perspective and form by using geometric shapes and patterns to create works of art in the style of Pablo Picasso and other Cubist painters. The kids used colour pencils, black markers and rulers to achieve the desired effect.
