Collage, memory and new imagery: A workshop with Christine Rieck-Sonntag

On November 12, 2026, an artistic experience will take place at the Volkshochschule Landshut that creates a new beginning from what seems outdated. The workshop with the artist Christine Rieck-Sonntag is aimed at adults who want to transform old drawings, watercolors, or paper works into a self-contained collage instead of discarding them.

From the existing sheet to the new image

The appeal of this format lies in the aesthetic experience of reinterpretation. Using glue, scissors, pens, and a keen eye for color and shape, previous works are not corrected, but rather rethought. From the fragment, a new whole grows, and from chance comes a conscious composition. Thus, image design becomes a dynamic viewing of the work.

Christine Rieck-Sonntag as an artistic catalyst

Christine Rieck-Sonntag is present as a painter, draftsman, and versatile creator in Landshut and beyond. Her works combine painting, graphic art, sculpture, and collage into a visual language where figurative observation, memory, and narrative density converge. The artist has been teaching life drawing for decades, emphasizing precise observation in her work. This makes the workshop especially valuable for all those interested in art history, creative practice, and cultural education.

Creativity with substance

The theme of the evening is intentionally simple yet challenging: What happens to a sheet when it is not understood as a finished result, but rather as material for a second, perhaps more surprising image idea? This is exactly where the curation of this course comes into play. It promotes awareness of color and form, solution-oriented thinking, and the ability to shape something independent from what is already present.

A place for focused work

The event will take place at the Volkshochschule Landshut at Ländgasse 41. The building is established as a place for learning and culture and is accessible without barriers. This provides the appropriate setting for a calm, focused evening where material, idea, and artistic process are at the center.

Conclusion

This workshop convincingly combines art education, practical work, and inspired experimentation. Those who want a creative shift in perspective and wish to experience how an older work transforms into a new image should save this date. A visit promises not only craft inspiration but also an intense aesthetic experience.
