We are learning to create our own agamograph.

Resources:

Coloured card, white paper, ruler, pencil, glue stick.

We will create our agamograph box first using the resources above.

What is abstract art/design?

Abstract art or design is a type of art that doesn't always look like something you can recognise in the real world, like a person, an animal, or a house. Instead, it's made up of shapes, colours, and lines that are used in creative and interesting ways. Abstract art doesn't have to follow the rules of making things look realistic, so it can be a bit like a colourful puzzle or a beautiful, messy dream.

Imagine if you were to mix and match different colours and shapes on a piece of paper without trying to create a specific picture. That's a bit like what abstract art is all about. It's all about using your imagination and feelings to create something special and unique. So, abstract art is like a colourful and imaginative adventure for your eyes!

What is repousse art?

Repoussé art is a special kind of art where you take a piece of metal, like copper or silver, and you push and shape it from the back to make a cool, raised design on the front. It's like magic for metal! You can create all sorts of patterns and shapes by pushing the metal to make it pop out. It's a bit like sculpting, but with metal.

Think of it as making a fancy, bumpy picture on a piece of metal. It's a bit like when you press clay to create shapes, but instead, we're doing it with shiny metal to make beautiful designs. Repoussé art is a bit like creating metal sculptures, and it's been used to make really pretty decorations for a long, long time. So, it's like making art and magic with metal!

WALT create abstract repousse art using cardboard, wool, glue, foil and sharpies.

First we are going to complete an abstract design onto a piece of cardboard using pencil and then black sharpie.
Once we have our design completed, we will then glue wool onto the black lines we have made with our sharpie.
We need to let the wool/glue dry overnight before our next step.
We will then need a piece of foil to cover our cardboard completely. We will use a glue stick in between all of the wool on our cardboard - this will help our foil to stick to our cardboard.
We will need to CAREFULLY use the palm of our hand and fingers to press the foil down onto the glue/cardboard.
Once foil is stuck down we can then colour in the different sections of our art using coloured sharpies.
