designs for the Overnewton Artist in Residence Project

Here are some designs in process by groups of students. They are making actual size designs for their mosaic panels.
The first picture is an example design made by Debbie Qadri. It has the rabbit template on it. The template is a piece of paper cut out the same shape and size as the rabbit in the design. It will be used as a pattern when Debbie makes the rabbit out of clay, so that she can be sure it will fit into the actual mosaic.

The project is to assist students make six 1X1 metre panels of mosaics with ceramic features based on the theme:Alice in Wonderland.
The first part of the mosaic process is to work with students on their designs. The theme is Alice in wonderland and the students are working in groups of four to design their mosaic. The detailed parts of their mosaic will be made out of clay as low relief sculpture. In their groups they have drawn pictures and cut them out. As a team they must arrange their pictures to compose their design. here are some designs in progress.
