VISION’ART 2016 : festival franco-ontarien d’arts visuels en milieu scolaire

Grateful for any chance to open minds on the different forms art can take.

I’ve been preparing for two art and ecology themed workshops geared to hundreds of students travelling to Ottawa this Thursday and Friday from across the province for the 6th edition of the Vision’Art Festival, offered to students of the Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est.

Stay tuned for more photos as the week evolves…

THURSDAY – Natural Pigments – Painting + Drawing
Egg yolk; earth and mineral based pigments.

FRIDAY – Living Tapestries – Environmental Art
Below, is the demo I’ll use to share with participants of the Living Tapestry workshop. Photos are to track the progression of growing seeds. Materials include burlap, tap water, Teff, Red clover (Trifolium pratense), and Wheat berries.
