In her works, Stefania Gallina uses coffee to paint on recycled materials, this workshop will therefore allow the participants to explore the use of colors, brushes, liquid coffee and its grounds on simple recycled cardboard sheets, which will be used as a basis for a painting.
During the event, it will be possible to see Goppion’s film dedicated to the world of coffee and its journey from the plantation to the cup.
