We're making an African garden in a quadrangle of a school. the school has a deep relationship with a school in Uganda - teachers and a few students have visited over the past four years. I'm coordinating the quad project and am doing a day or two making signage and bird art with young people. It's a highschool. I found out that the group I am working with next week is very, very low ability of just yr 8 boys and the quad is a highly visible space. I have scaled back the project and am opting for a collage approach with a bit of magic... I have coated lots of pieces of paper with glue, have cut up some marine ply and have collected images of West African birds. I have photos of the landscape and lots of magazines to cut letters from and will bring in my photocopier so we can make image transfers onto the wood, paint the landscape and add some text. When I've shown the kids my demo I will post it somewhere not too far away (85 grams!).
