Vista's Sea of People

Based on Antony Gormley's 'Fields for the British Isles' art installation, the children made their own version of their little clay people with terracotta clay using the Coiling Method. Thereafter, their works were displayed during the Vista Awards Day Art Exhibition. Indeed it was a glorious sight to see the children beaming with pride as they explained the concept and  entire art making process to their famiy and friends!

Artist Appreciation: Gustav Klimt, Tree of Life

The pupils were introduced to world- renowned artist Gustav Klimt and his art pieces. As introduction, pupils had a peek into his life and the jounrney he embarked on as an artist.

Animal Collage

Using newspaper, the pupils were challenged to create an animal of their choice on A3 cartridge paper.
To make their very own coloured paper, they used poster paint to paint either warm or cool colours on the newspaper. After which, they then drew the outline of an animal of their choice on an A3 cartridge paper. Using the painted newspaper, they then proceeded on to tearing it into bits and pieces and thereafter pasting it within the outline of their animal. Using water colour, they filled in colours for the background.

Upon completion, pupils were selected to share with the class their art making process and what were the difficulties they faced and how they overcame it. :)

Using the 'Magic L', the children create the human body doing a dance of their choice. Some chose dances ranging from Hip Hop, Ballet, Martial Arts to even a Spanish Dance. Medium used was oil pastel and water colour.

 

 After creating their masterpieces, the children did a little 'Show and Tell' explaining the type of dance they chose. Some enthusiastic little ones even 'showed off' a few of their dance moves! :)

My Neighbourhood!

The pupils were asked to observed their neighbourhood and the things that went on throughout the day. Using oil pastel and water colour, they then expressed their interpretation of what their neighbourhood is like through their eyes.

My School Model

The pupils were asked to pick a favourite spot in school and then challeged to do a revamp of the place. Some hot favourite were the school library, classrooms, indoor sports hall and the eco garden. The kids had a great time exploring and using everyday materials such as paper, bottle caps, cloth, wool etc. to create their tiny furnitures resulting in beautiful masterpieces!
