Mosaic manufactory in Plön
Art as therapy. Mosaic laying: an art that has been around for thousands of years but never gets old.
Do it yourself: Discover the artisan in you. Experience the expressive power of color. Free yourself from everyday stress with your creativity. Mosaic is an art form known since Greek times, in which small pieces are put together to form large pictures and ornaments. Even in ancient times, people made mosaics to embellish their living space. Mosaic objects are particularly impressive due to their colorfulness and the variety of materials used.
Sabine Könneker, owner of the Atelier am Schöhsee, moved back to the north in 2016 after 20 years abroad (Japan, Holland, Oman) as a native of Hamburg. Originally a German scholar, she worked abroad mainly as a German lecturer, whereby making mosaics, initially only a hobby, began to take up more and more space. She attended workshops in Italy, France and England. There she learned various techniques and was inspired to develop her own style. In sunny Oman, she held her first workshops at the Art Center in Muscat and the enthusiasm of the course participants gave her the idea of offering courses in northern Germany too.
Workshop
The course will teach you the technique and guide you through the process of turning an idea into a finished mosaic. You can be inspired by the various examples from history or from the contemporary artist/individual scene. Mosaic objects can be anything: a stone, a table top, a picture, a tray, a vase, a lamp ... There are no limits to your imagination, although you should start with a smaller, flat project. In addition to imparting knowledge, the focus is on the therapeutic aspect of this activity. Art as therapy! Find out how this calm, concentrated, creative activity can help you relax and feel more in tune with your environment and your inner self.
