Wearable Arts

The past two weeks we have spent time reviewing past designs and collaboratively brainstorming ideas that would fit with this years four themes:
1. Stone/Ice Age
2. Medieval
3. The Industrial Revolution
4. Space Age

Creating a wearable artwork sounds easy in theory but in reality it can be incredibly daunting for some. I myself attempted to come up with an original design and found it very challenging, especially with letting go and taking risks. This understanding has helped a lot as the class and I have worked through the process of design, including how to add detail about key features of the artwork. It would be greatly appreciated if you at home can also help support your child through the design process by spending time to talk to them about their ideas, what resources will be needed, materials required and ideas for construction.

I have attached a copy of the timeline for this terms Wearable Arts. It includes what we are doing at school and where you could help at home.
