Collective storyboard drawing workshop

Nice Flaps invites Home Cinema to bring a new moving image perspective to our series of collective drawing sessions. This session will center on collectively exploring the intersection of the cinematic, drawing, and personal memories, led by artist Andoni Zamora.

“The settings in my dreams often come from places where I lived as a child. I rarely dream about the environments I currently interact with. When I return to my hometown and encounter familiar landmarks like the fountain, the doorway, and the wardrobe, a part of me is transported back to those dreamlike states or memories.”

Andoni Zamora invites participants to bring pieces of their memories to create a collective landscape. The session will focus on representing and translating these images through drawing.

This workshop layers an improvised fictional narrative onto a collectively imagined scenery, blending memory with collaborative fiction storytelling.

Participants will be invited to draw objects or architectural elements from their memories or dreams, while Andoni will contribute scenographic elements. This will unfold through a series of quick drawing exercises that will then be translated into larger illustrations. In the final part of the workshop, we will collaboratively speculate and narrate a story that ties together all the contributions. This story will then be performed and culminate in a one-shot film that captures the pictorial narrative.
