Collective Roll-Up Workshop

Collective Roll-Up Workshop is a free one-day workshop in which participants transform a salvaged rolling gate into a collective assemblage. It is led by Roger Ferney-Cortés, who invites participants to treat the gate, often a boundary between public and private space, as a shared surface for experimentation and exchange. Using airbrushes, hand tools and mark-making techniques, participants inscribe and physically manipulate the corrugated steel, exploring the material itself rather than only painted imagery. At the end, the gate is deconstructed and reassembled into a single composition, turning an urban barrier into a collective artwork; no experience is needed, materials and safety equipment are provided, and it is for ages 8 and up.
