The trip to Manucha was a great experience perhaps one of the best things I have done with a group of Lakeridge students. I loved the boding time with the rest of the group. The project we did was great; I learned that a piece of artwork can be made out of anything even something as simple as a cylinder. The artist was excellent -she had some memorable quotes- she was very down to earth and quite holistic. It was interesting to hear someone else’s views on the subject of plagiarism in art, and how other peoples work can be reflected on your own art. Our group adventures were exciting as I was left at the house alone… in the bathroom… so much for the “No child left behind.” That was quite entertaining and I’m sure will be a story to tell later on.
My project that I created in the woods was a bird’s nest with flowers in the center. It turned out well, along with my duel flowers in a piece of driftwood, not only is it a multimedia piece it is a piece of nature. Both pieces blend into the environment easily by having touches of green moss, which is incorporated in the design. I cannot wait for the next retreat or wood firing, for another relaxing trip away from school.
