Art show on the floor

As we get ready to enjoy spring break and not starting a new project, this class was about having an art show displayed on the floor of our GYM.  I presented the students a tiny part of my portfolio in order for them to understand the creative process. From sketching to planning, also letting them see different techniques, some of them that we have used in class. It was fun having them outside of the classroom and giving them the chance to touch, observe and try materials as a part of the formation in this creative workshop that more than an art class it's a way to appreciate and being able to explore their talents and potential.

Claro Oscuro

 

During this experience, students were able to represent several textures, such as glass, candle light, skylines and animals hiding in the dark. By just the simple act of switching a white crayon on a black surface, each one of them got the sense of understanding how light creates volume or bi-dimensional effects. .

Our new experiment consist in making a twist in how we look at things in our everyday life. This time objects are coming from darkness being shaped by light in quite an elegant or mysterious way.
