On Monday February 21st, P6A and P6B took part in the Almondell Cemetery Memorial Artwork project. Visiting artist Svetlana Kondakova specialises in public and environmental art and has been commissioned to create a piece of art for the cemetary at Calderwood with the help of our P6 pupils.
Svetlana Explained the concept she had in mind and showed us how to make templates to represent water, leaves or flowers. We then cut the shapes from silver, gold and bronze card and glued them together.
Once they were finished, all the pieces of art were joined together to make the final shape. It looks amazing! Svetlana’s plan is to use our design to help her create the finished 3D version which will be made of metal; we can’t wait to see the final result.
