Books and baddies

You should never be a bad teacher as you etch yourself into children's minds and memories becoming as infamous as a  fairy tale monster. This week I took a workshop where we made very simple trouser books and then used colour charts to add an element of collage.
The lady above has a collaged grey bob and her name is 'Mrs Queen', famous for being mean and hitting children with leather gloves.

Below are some further examples of the children's work, they loved this projects writing endless stories and then storytelling.

Wellcome Centre, London

'Human Genome Colour Chart' by artist Julie Cockburn is one of the contemporary exhibits at the wonderful 'Wellcome Collection' a fascinating gallery of art and human health exhibits from all over the world.
''Wellcome Collection is a unique mix of galleries, events, and meeting, reading and eating places where you can consider what it means to be human.
It brings to life Sir Henry Wellcome's vision of a place where people could learn more about the development of medicine through the ages and across cultures.''
