K – 2 Artists of the Week

Year 2 have been looking at movement in art and exploring all the ways artists can represent the idea of motion.  For this particular artwork, Year 2 turned 2D paper into a 3D interactive artwork through the process of origami.  Kurt, Ned and Oscar have created brightly coloured and balanced artworks that show a fantastic use of colour, pattern and line.  Well done, boys!

3 – 6 Artists of the Week

Artist of the week comes from Year 4.The boys studied installation artist – Simryn Gil. Her work is about making small insignificant things powerful by altering the structure of them, and installing them in a way that makes the work look like a herd.  The boys made cars using small, recycled household items. They added parts including wheels, logos and other materials to make different types of cars and  trucks. They also made animations using the cars as subject matter.

Congratulations to Jack Cornish and Max Filleti for their amazing sculptures. Their work can be found in the cabinet in the corridor below the ‘Artist of the Week’ sign.
