This Saturday, we will walk through The Fields in search of opposites in our sculptures. Find a sculpture that is black and white, a sculpture that has both straight and curvy lines, a sculpture that is rough and smooth, a sculpture that looks both hard and soft, a sculpture that has both inside and outside, and more... How do opposites 'work together' and why do some artists think opposites are important in making a work of art?
Back in the studio, children will build with wood and wire to create 3D forms and structures. These materials, one rigid and the other flexible, will help us to understand the difference between geometric and organic shapes and how they can compliment each other in sculpture.
