Project: Collaborative Mark-Making – A Matter of Mark-Making
Participants: Year 4 pupils
Partnering with: Healey JI&N
Artist: Fabric Lenny
Science topic: States of Matter
Following an initial session of large-scale, experimental collaborative drawing using a wide variety of monochrome materials, we will introduce frozen ink and work creatively with the resulting marks as the thawing process offers up shapes patterns and textures. We will use iPads to document the making process, to explore the changing state of the frozen ink and to originate ‘finger-painted’ works in response to the melting process using a number of creative apps. This collection of images and material will then be used to create further experimental collaborative work exploring the themes within the science topic and the wider theme of Change.
