Description

This collaborative work was done by Village Glen West students in Ms. Guillaume's Bridge, Science Core, and Art Club.  

 

Artists ranged in age from 12 to 16-years-old.

 

The finished, unframed art work size is 30” x 40.”

 

Materials used to create this one-of-a-kind work on canvas included acrylic medium, gel medium, aluminum 18 gauge metal and permanent markers.

 

Bridge students painted the squares, challenging themselves to stay within their space with shades of the same color.

 

The Art Club and Science Core engaged in metal work, creating indentations, which were then colored to look like stained embossments.  Initially they used soda cans for a Pop Art approach, mounting cans in the centers of each square. The soda can metal proved to be difficult for the artists to control so they exchanged that out with the aluminum sheets.
