"WATER" - Kozo Art Club programme and exhibition

Created 2009-01-21 by Tunde Toth

Location: Rural - Co. Kilkenny

Duration: 2009-01-21 to 2009-04-30

Project Outline

Art Club participants have been exploring the theme of "Water" through a number of mediums and concepts. A two hour workshop has been held each week at The Watergarden Gallery in Thomastown, Co. Kilkenny from January until end of April.

Children were introduced to various techniques of painting, drawing, hand papermaking, silk papermaking, collage building, sculptural processes, monoprinting, fibre and textile arts.
All workshops were facilitated by Tunde Toth - fibre and paper artist.

This project was also designed to encourage communication, learning of a new vocabulary and to offer a friendly, non-competitive and creative environment where individual ideas and their expression is the primarily focus.
The children have also participated in the selection of their own art works - curating and installing their own exhibition entitled "Water". The exhibition showed selected works by all participants as well as collaborative, large scale installation pieces.
