Art is joyful! And this week in The Art Room it really wasβ¦ In honour of International Sculpture Day, we ditched the flat page and went gloriously 3D! π
Did you know abstract sculpture doesnβt have to represent anything at all? This week we learned about British artist Anthony Caro, whose bold metal sculptures changed the idea of what sculpture could be - no pedestals, no figures, just shape, balance and imagination. π€©
We weave in art history and technique in our sessions - whilst always leaving plenty of room for imagination and explorationβ¦ This week that looked like wonderfully colourful paper constructions built around shape, balance and pure creative instinct! βοΈ
Shape. Balance. Imagination. No rules about what it had to look like - just the freedom to experiment and see where it went⦠Exactly the kind of brief that brings out the best in our young artists!

From art history to hands-on making - this is what Thursdays look like in The Art Room! Curious? Take a look at our website blog to see more of what weβve been up to latelyβ¦ π
