Sculpture Workshops (1 Day)
Workshops at Primary Schools (and secondary schools)
I also offer schools the opportunity for pupils to create their own individual sculptures, or work in small groups, developing and strengthening their 3D making skills. During the workshop, pupils construct a sculpture using newspaper, cardboard, tape, and recycled materials. The form is then covered with modelling plaster bandage (Mod Roc) to create a hard surface, ready to be painted back in school with teachers once dry. Pupils are shown examples of my own sculpture work to inspire ideas and approaches.
This is a fantastic workshop for developing 3D creative skills that pupils can use throughout their time at school and beyond. Workshops are often based on curriculum topics such as African Masks, Ancient Civilisations, Animals, Fish, and Space. This one-day workshop is ideal for two classes of approximately thirty pupils—one class in the morning and a different class in the afternoon (or approximately a two-hour session at secondary school).
