The final artwork of the semester was one that was to be based upon math and/or science. We spent the better part of a week watching videos to learn about artists who use math and science in their work and use them in both a traditional way and an out-of-the-box way. Students then created graphic organizers that started with the general subject of math or science, then was narrowed down to what area of that subject they were interested in, and ended with an artwork that could be inspired by their mind maps.
I loved watching my artists make connections between art and other subjects. And, the variety of directions they went in is pretty awesome. The artistic growth from this group of students so far this year has been amazing.
