Famous Artwork Collages

This term in Art Cave Stage 3 have been creating collages based off famous artworks. 6B chose ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa‘ by Japanese artist Hokusai and ‘The Persistence of Memory‘ (or the melty clock picture as everyone liked to call it) by Surrealist Salvador Dali. We traced the artworks onto a large sheet of thick card and then split each card into 10 x 10 cm squares. Then we numbered the squares and each student was given different squares to work on. The beauty of these artwork collages is that when you put all the pieces back together you can see the artwork, but each one has been created by a different student. Have a look at our progress photos and the finished product of ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa’. Thank you to Ms Armstrong for the awesome art idea and to Jane and Alex in Art Cave for their persistence in working with us to get these masterpieces finished. Stay tuned to see how ‘The Persistence of Memory’ turns out…
