Workshop at Lopdell House
Recently 10 students were invited to do a workshop at Lopdell House Gallery. The workshop was run by 2 artists doing a project called IMAGINE THE LAND. They have been travelling around the country using locally found sand, clay and earth to make there artwork with.
The students added to the artwork done by previous groups - extending the artwork from the window out onto the pavement. They built clay walls and poured different coloured sands in between, rolled clay balls in the different colours and sprinkled sparkling white sands onto rich black sands.
It was a unique experience and they created effective designs that became part of the exhibition that was opening that evening.
