Printing Explorations

My seventh grade students were given a printing demonstration  by Corcoran student, Kristine in one of the 6 art sessions we are doing as part of Corcoran's ArtReach program. Students printed their collographs.

Exploring Identity with ArtReach

Seventh grade students at Brookland explore issues of identity during art lessons with Corcoran Museum of Arts' ArtReach program. Kristen, a Corcoran education student co-teaches with me for 6 art sessions at the school. In this project students make collographs using cloth, ribbon, bubble wrap and other found objects to make a statement about their identity. The finished prints will be exhibited in May at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C..

Wire Works

On the last day of our work at Casa Hogar we showed off our collaborative wire hanging. Corcoran students created wire portraits back at the Corcoran in D.C. The girls in Mexico created their own faces and other images out of painted wire.
