A slightly younger group today who were really excited to be on the tour. We kicked off by Oscar saying that he knows of Dylan Thomas’s work and had visited his Boathouse in Llaugharne. After viewing Bergerman’s mural, Oscar also commented ‘I thought that this was going to be boring but its really fun”. Shane said “is this a comic version of real life”.
“More colour is needed”, said Paula with response to Jeremy Deller’s work. “More detail is needed”, replied Morgan.
Daniel thought that a part of Craig Fisher’s work was a giant bed. An interesting discussion evolved regarding whether the work was one or many individual pieces. Cara thought it was like being in a fairy tale. Oscar asked “is it a drive through ?” Paula said, “maybe it’s a funky party”. Grace said it was all the same theme but separate pieces of Art. Leighton and Kai were talking about explosions of patterns falling from the sky relating to the Dazzle Patterns in Fisher’s work.
The Mega Poem was once again added to:
“Mega Mega poem what could it be,
Mega Poem Mega Poem it must be something special for you and me” by Paula.
Whilst viewing Lisa Skantlebury’s work Kai thought it may be a good idea to create a film of a street dance.
We Finished off the tour with Tom Goddard’s work the very intriguing story of Lizzie the Elephant. The story created some great ideas for the workshop days, e.g. some sort of circus type mural perhaps!
