Paper art course at Veitvet AKS with Kloden and Jonas Cadena

June 14, 2021

During the summer vacation, we are organizing a paper art workshop for students at Veitvet AKS in collaboration with artist Jonas Cadena. The students can choose between two different courses. In one of them, students can create a fantastic pegasus sculpture in papier-mâché. A pegasus is a fairytale creature with wings.

In the second course, we'll make fun characters in colorful cardboard, such as aliens, dragons, fish or turtles.

The courses are led by Jonas Cadena, a Mexican visual artist living in Norway. He has extensive experience working with children and young people, both as an art teacher at Asker Kulturskole, and through more than 200 art workshops with The Cultural Rucksack throughout the country. He has also created large public art installations both for and in collaboration with children. For several years, he was also responsible for the art workshops at the International Children's Art Museum in Oslo. Jonas also works actively as a performing artist. He has regular exhibitions and has been commissioned by several public institutions.
