The projects are run by artist David Marchant and use Locws International events as inspiration.<\/p>\n<p>For more information and a list of previous Locws Schools participants please continue reading. <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Locws International events illustrate a broad range of contemporary artwork and the artworks are made in response to an aspect of Swansea&#8217;s culture, heritage, architecture or people. The artworks, created by international and Welsh artists using a variety of mediums, provide a unique educational opportunity and have inspired students to create some very interesting and insightful responses. Locws Schools starts with a guided tour of the artworks at which David Marchant presents some of the thinking behind the artworks and explains the ideas and processes of making the work. The second part of the project sees students create their own site specific art projects inspired by what they have seen and learned, presented at each school in Locws Schools exhibitions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.locwsinternational.com\/?attachment_id=5069\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5069\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/josephs2.jpg\" alt=\"St Josephs Primary School Tour \" width=\"670\" height=\"500\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5069\" srcset=\"https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/josephs2.jpg 670w, https:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/josephs2-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Locws Schools is open to all schools in the Swansea area.

Artist David Marchant encourages students\u201a to make responses to the artworks while they attempt to unravel what the work means to themselves and what they think the artist is trying to achieve. Each work is carefully explained and the students are encouraged to think of how it could inpsire them to create a piece of their own work within their school or college environment. With the inspiration gained from the tours, the students are expected to produce a response to a particular artwork or artworks and during the course of the first day, students set themselves a brief which they research and investigate by day two of the project, David Marchant\u2019s visit to their school or college.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Locws Schools: Artworks<\/strong><br \/>\nOn day two of Locws Schools, David Marchant works closely with the students to create their own site-specific projects at their school.
