Abintra Art - Week 31 (2012 - 2013 School Year)
EC's diversity collaboration art is complete. Every EC student has a piece of their skin color and their personality color incorporated in this work.
LE finished out the year by creating a visual story "quilt" inspired by Faith Ringgold's book, "Tar Beach". The students started the project by sketching a make believe place they would fly to if they could fly. They then painted paper to cut pieces to form their make believe places. They finished off the story by drawing with oil pastels. Finally they took pieces of pattern paper or fabric to create a quilt like border around their artwork.
ME performed their play, "Where is the Water?". They told the story of a village in the Azawak region of Sub-Saharan Africa which straddles the border between Mali and Niger and how their lives are enriched by an organization with the goal of making ground water available to as many people as possible in this drought-parched corner of the world.
UE performed their play, "Ding Went the Bell: Life in UE" and finished the performance off with poetry they had written. To hear their poetry, go to http://youtu.be/yNRc7SqgoN4.
UE also visited the Frist to see the exhibition, "Exploring Art of the Ancient Americas: The John Bourne Collection."
MS finished their Ellsworth Kelly Collaboration piece.
MS also spent the last few weeks working really hard to create collages to represent the lessons from the Civil Rights/Heifer Ranch trip.
