Year 2 became architects! They explored how buildings relate to people and place, drew inspiration from real architects; Hundertwasser, Zaha Hadid and Heatherwick Studios, and used 'Design Through Making' to create their own models. #ArtEd #Architecture #AccessArt #wpsart
Year 3 explored storytelling through sculpture! Inspired by Dirty Beasts they marbled paper with 'Brusho', then used it as a Base for their plasticine characters. Sketchbooks helped them turn words into 3D art, just like artists Rosie Hurley & Inbal Leitner. #ArtEd # StoryThroughArt #AccessArt
Y4 explored how context & presentation shape art. Inspired by artists like Gormley, Shonibare & Price, they looked at how plinths affect how sculpture is seen. They created their own mini galleries by curating found objects as artworks! #ArtEd #Minigalleries #AccessArt #wpsart

Y2 Exploring the World Through Mono Print - Through this process, the children engaged in a tactile and interactive way, transforming their perceptions into visual art. #wpsart #accessart
Y4 Exploring Pattern. This Pathway encouraged a mindful approach to working with pattern. Y4 discovered how artists and designers incorporate pattern into their work, before experimenting with different techniques to create their own patterns in a fun and playful way. #wpsart #accessart
