Abstract: Noting that those objects and images currently accepted in the world of fine art might not contain those things posterity will consider significant, this paper offers a practical workshop activity that creates a culture from each individual's imagination. The activity explores images influenced by others or by individual values that reflect a cultural mix, taking into account "traditional" forms and aesthetic considerations. The paper proposes three aspects that individual participants should experience in the workshop: cultural forms that reflect identity; compositions that are original and use emblems of identity; and creating through trial, reflection, intervention, and modification. Slide photos and posters of objects and images of specific cultures were shown at the workshop, and participants worked with collage and mixed media to compose a work that reflected a real or imagined culture.
