Senior School Art Project

The senior school have been on a mission this term learning about different types of art. They started off by researching artwork that they liked and then finding out some information on the artist. They even contacted some and asked questions about their style of art. This then led them onto their art project using flax and clay. Whaea Turi spent many hours working with students to learn how to weave. They masters ended up making kete and mats. Everyone then spent a day with local legend potters Rod and Margie Davis from Fern Flat. What they produced was simply mouth watering! Here are some photos of their combinations. These will be displayed at their art show next week.
