The Tape Project was our very first post at WE-MAKE-MARKS. Join us for our second go round. This time we started with a white canvas and black tape. We noticed that with just the black on white our project would resemble a drawing like we were used to making at home or in class :)
Our Artist of the Week, William Onyeabor (Nigeria, 1970's)
Day One.
Day Two.
After we completed our large "drawing" in the previous class we took a good long look at what we had made and then received a smaller copy of our own to finish as we pleased...
Then we turned them into larger paintings....
Day Three.
When we returned to the large drawing we added colored tape together. This time we made sure to only take what we could carry in order to avoid destroying our materials...
Day Four.
Even though we were all very happy with our drawing after we added color, we added MORE color and sealed it all in with a nice coat of mod-podge!
Until next time!
This is awesome! The kids are lucky to be working on such inspired projects!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat art and great presentation. I would think 60-Minutes or Sunday Morning (both CBS shows) or certainly CNN or a cable station would pick this up. It's very well put together. These shows are constantly looking for a good feature and it seems to me you've done one. David Stern
