With curriculum links to the Early Years Framework, and to science and art up to Year 3, this workshop will allow children to expand their “light vocabulary”, share their discoveries and express their creativity. Using everyday, familiar materials, children can experiment with a different way of making art using an element that Brisbane is bathed in: light!
Workshop (45 minutes)
Kinly Grey’s intriguing artwork echoes 2021, featured in Museum of Brisbane’s 2021 exhibition City in the Sun, is the inspiration for this illuminating learning experience. Equipped with a personal torch, children can explore light, shadow and reflection for themselves using a variety of familiar materials.
