MYP5 2021 Exhibit

Picasso once said "Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life". These wise words are true now more than ever. This school year has been unusual, however it has provided the opportunity for us all to learn to adapt to new environments and ways of living, and by consequence, we have all become more resilient and adaptable.

Through a variety of art projects such as: understanding the elements and principles of art and critiquing artworks, creating tarot cards and self portraits using color and symbols to represent their identities, and creating hand-made and digital collages to communicate ideas, the students had a space where they could express themselves, communicate their thoughts and feelings, and reflect on their learning and who they are at this moment in time.

I am beyond proud of the accomplishments of each and every student and can't wait to see what the future holds.

All my best,

Mrs. Widman
