Insects and dragons

This unit of work focuses on the subject matter of insects and dragons and offers students the opportunity to explore real and imagined creatures in their artmaking.

This experience offers them opportunities to creatively transform ideas from 2-dimensional drawings of insects and creatures into 3-dimensional mythical beings using wire, fibre and fabric.

The structure and movement of these 3-dimensional creatures is emphasised and students are encouraged to create new and original creatures that suggest feelings of power or the creation of another mood.
