The course creates space for investigating materials’ potential by constructing large or extremely small-scale sculptures; changing form and dimension of ready-made objects through repetition, wrapping, knotting, tearing, squeezing, hiding, bending, twisting or combining. The children have the opportunity to create architecture, assemblage and sculptures at large-scale, and incredibly small. They work with the idea of the maquette; making a small playful version of an idea, before trying to recreate it at a larger scale.
Activities Include: Den/shelter building; wrapping of objects hung in the space; bamboo constructions; outdoor installations using fabric, tube, rails and foam; covering objects.
Our workshops days are broken up with different creative play and exploratory activities. The children are free to choose from larger collaborative making and small independent activities. We have curated books and short-films to enrich their understanding of how sculpture and art relates to their world, for moments in the afternoon when energy wanes.
Additional needs:
We are happy to accept children with additional needs. However it is essential that you get in touch with us in advance to discuss them so we can ensure a safe, productive and creative experience for all, given our staffing capacity. Failure to do this may mean we are unable to accept your child on the day. We will likely advise a trial half-day to start with.
