We roved the island as a happy pack collecting materials from nature to add into our art projects.

We learned about artists such as Andy Goldsworthy, Eve Hesse, Tara Donovan, Leon Ferrari, and Mira Schendel. The students were so open to new ideas, incorporating natural objects, and expressing themselves in a variety of art mediums. What a beautiful week!

One last word of advice before plunging into this triple feature–don’t eat the mushrooms.
