Today, we discussed the difference between 'drawing' and 'writing' our names. The class agreed that drawing allowed more creativity and freedom in creating an image, while writing gives one routine information: your name. The class made some beautiful images of their names, and we will return to this theme later on in our larger collages.
We discussed what our names would look like, translate to, to someone who was illiterate. We agreed that they would see values, lines, color, shape: an image rather than a word.
We tried to watch a video about Venezuelan artist Arturo Herrera, but there was too much noise from the nearby music room. We will start on our first project, the Postcard Project, on Monday; Mr. Brewster and his film/documentary class will begin filming the class making their work.
