Beautiful pieces
of Art
Inspired by nature
Ephemeral art is the process of using natural materials to create temporary art pieces that are captured in photo upon completion.
The use of natural materials encourages children to explore with the senses, to slow down and take plenty of time with their work.
Ann Pelo states “We want children to explore the sensuality and beauty of colour, texture, movement, lines and curves, and space through encounters with a wide range of media and materials. We want children to strengthen the dispositions of artists..., dispositions to look carefully, to pay attention to detail and nuance, and to work with intention and awareness. We want children to reflect on their experiences, to use their reflections to guide their explorations.”
Ephemeral art creates the perfect atmosphere to achieve these goals and the children really seem to enjoy the experience.
Back in September we introduced Ephemeral art to the inside area with some lovely work produced...
Today we took Ephemeral art outdoors...such a lovely day for it and just look at the beautiful art work the children created today.
