Earlier this week, Artist Vic Lee and Project Curator Ashley worked with the Head of Creative Arts, Mr Hicks, and Year 10 students at Frederick Bremer School during a special enrichment day. Students had a privileged preview of the Tall Tales artwork in progress and learnt about Vic's creative approach and working methods.
They considered ways that a range of contemporary artists employ text in temporary public artworks, before trying their hand at making their own brilliant text artworks with stickers, post-it notes and paper cutting.
It was a really fun, inspiring day and we very much look forward to continue working with Frederick Bremer School staff and students throughout Round 2 of the programme.
The pupils will visit Vic's full size work in situ on Wood Street when they return after the Easter holidays.
Some students comments:
" I learnt some new, different techniques directly from the artist"
"It was fun and entertaining"
"I learnt a lot about different processes and ideas behind the work"
"It was really useful for my Art GCSE, as well as being fun"
