Year 8 Creative Arts

Jake Blanch having his face moulded for his mask

Year 8 Visual Art students have been busy studying masks from a range of different cultures. We have examined the history, types of materials used and meanings behind African, Venetian, Indonesian, Japanese and Commedia dell'arte masks. 

Students have now started to create a plaster mask of their own faces which they will then paint and add different materials too.

Stay tuned for photo's of their final mask creations.

Thanks

Miss Hardingham
