Arts & Crafts


In this subject we are going to reflect on the need of expressing ourselves through plastic and visual language while we are childs and teenagers. And we are also going to reflect on the importance this side has, along with creativity, for our development at the school. 
​


​CALENDAR

Task 1 has to be developed along first day morning. Before starting any task, read the whole page. It is important to have task 2 in mind to decide in each group the artistic techniques you want to use and the materials you are going to need and that each member of the group will have to bring.

Task 2 has to be developed througout the next 2 working days. 
TASK 1
When we are babies, we love doing scribbles and lines everywhere. When we are children we express ourselves filling in and colouring spaces, doing tactil textures and patterns and designing collages. When teenagers, we draw trying to capture our complex inner world.

LET'S ANALYZE OUR WORKS!
​

ACTIVITIES TO DO 

  • Each group has to select a folder with compositions done in your different educational periods: pre-school, primary school, and what you have already done at secondary school; in order to study the evolution. You can also study compositions done by your parents, grandparents, siblings, etc,...
  • Select some of the images (minimum one per group member) and make a denotative (objective) analysis summarizing structure patterns (dots, lines, colour.....) and composition.   
  • Later we'll do a connotative (subjective) analysis remembering ideas we tried to communicate at a personal level in each composition, as well as messages, feelings, emotions, and so on.

You have to write down these analysis and put them in your team Padlet.

  • We will also pay attention to plastic expressions done by children and teenagers studying while living in hostile environment (refugee camps, war conflict areas, Third World) or those living critic moments when being a child or teenager, while fighting against a serious desease. 

  • You'll have to analyze the compositions shown in this point, especially connotative contents.

  • We will highlight the importance of watching pictures to understand concepts in other subjects or to improve communication inside the school. 
​​
  • We'll analyze also the requirements pictograms have to follow and the function they have inside this school to improve communication.

TASK 2
School is an environment where we develop and build our personality and where we can also discover interests, concerns, points of view, proposals, ....all those things make us reflect and wonder about many issues and, therefore, answer and give an opinion. We can do all that in Arts and Crafts. 
​

Now we are concious that images can be created to reach many goals (apart from a purely aesthetic goal). We are going to go on doing artistic compositions that send a message and carry an intention. 

At the begining of the exercise we would take issues and ideas that make us be worried or interested. With these images we can claim, raise awareness, provoke, protest, report.....and trough these ways make the observer think. 
​
​We will see the work of famous plastic artists Keith Haring and Banksy.



LET'S START UP OUR CREATIVITY! 
​

ACTIVITIES TO DO
​
  • We will watch and document these two artists works and we'll make comments on both of them at the Padlet team about the messages we can find in their jobs (see pictures below). 
​
  • ​Keith Haring  was an artist and a social activist whose work reflects pop generation spirit and New York street culture in the 1980's. His repeated themes were birth, death, love, sex, tolerance, respect, vitality, war.
​
  • Banksy is the pseudonim of a prolific British street art artist.​

  • Each group will start drawing sketches about an idea, a message or an intention they want to show in their jobs and think about plastic graphic resources they are going to use (denotative analysis: dots, lines and taches, use of the colours, cromatic range, contrasts, cold and hot colour ranges, use of compositive schemes). 
​
  • We will use different artistic techniques and different supports and formats. We will use continous white paper and DIN A3 sheets. We will highlight the use of recycled materials we could find at school and at home (we can use carboards and white cork as supports and plastic plates, egg boxes or plastic caps as palettes for temperas). ​
​
  • ​​We will foster the use of ink, paint brush and calibrated markers. But we will also draw with tiralíneas (a tool used several decades ago at drawing lessons). So, you have to ask your parents and grandparents if they still have them to borrow them. ​
 
  • We are going to use other techniques that are also traditional at schools of art. We will make taches with charcoal,  redline painting, wax painting, tempera, watercolor, pastel........and, we'll, even, try to paint al temple (ancient technique using egg yolk as binding agent for the pigments).
​
  • Al final cada grupo expondrá el análisis connotativo de su obra ante el resto del curso (mensaje e intención que se ha pretendido plasmar) . Estas imágenes irán personalizando nuestro entorno y nuestra escuela. 
​ ​
  • Eventually, each group will explain their work's connotative analysis to the rest of the groups (the message and intention they try to show). These pictures would costumize our environment and school. 
​
  • Compositions should be kept and given to the teachers of Arts and Crafts. 
​​
  • If any group finishes both tasks and has still time, they can start designing a logo for the school.

​CREATIVITY IS GOING TO PLAY A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE. IT IS GOING TO BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN ABILITY TO DRAW, AS EVERY STUDENT HAS THE RIGHT TO EXPRESS HIM/HERSELF THROUGH ART.
