I have been working at Trinity Catholic School for the second time.
The Title this year being Dark Matter.
I have taken inspiration from various artist, scientific biological documentation and of course Frankenstein.
I've been working with student from Year 7 to Year 10. I am unsure about the final presentation of this project as I am unable to start working on the instillation part of it for the time being. I have concentrated of the word 'Dark', involving the students drawing exercises that use a different sense, touch. Exploring our assumptions, change, and how much we can interpret without our sight, as if we where in the 'Dark'.
They've been producing first one drawing just by the touch of a toy they've never seen. Second a drawing under the same conditions but also blind (without looking at their paper) and guess what the toy was. They could then reveal the toy and see if their assumptions where correct and how accurate their drawing was.
After one last drawing then they could change the toy to make their own.
