Drawing Shadows


 

Special school in the Epping Forest District. Work facilitated as Community Artist, Epping Forest Arts, collaboration with Victoria Tebbs, Dance Artist, EFA.

The work was created using a video camera and projector, with live projection onto a board for drawing the body outlines. Participants were pupils aged 6 – 11. Some of the children found remaining still and holding a shape a challenge, but seeing themselves in the projection really helped and enabled them to participate, creating a group artwork that remained at the school.

The children loved the speeded up video of themselves creating the drawing which we showed when we revisited the school.
