Year 2 have been developing their understanding of shape, form and texture as they learned about sculptures. They started the topic looking at the work of Bell, Rhodes, Eggmore and Goldsworthy and were inspired! They decided to sketch one of their favourite yoga stretches and base their sculpture on this pose. Can you identify the pose of the blue sculpture in the photo?
First the children used wire to create the form, and then they used lovely messy mud-roc to bring the form to life. Finally, they painted their sculptures in beautiful bright colours and added lots of sparkly bits!
Their intention was to brighten up our new outdoor garden with their calm, yet colourful creations which they most certainly did. A big thank you to the parents that came to view and celebrate these gorgeous creations – we hope you enjoyed the ice-cream too!
