Grade 11 Culture Drawings (AVI3M, AVI3O)

These drawings were inspired by the work at Allen Smutylo's exhibit Wild Places Wild Hearts: Nomads of the Himalaya. The students found photographs of people from another culture that they liked, then found a pattern or piece of textile from that culture to create a background with.  Their final pieces were BIG and have not all photographed well- but you'll get the idea.  I have a few more to add soon.

  1. LOVE this project and it's cultural tie-in.

  2. Thank you! I think this was especially interesting because even though we are a Canadian school, we aren't situated in a very ethnically rich part of the province.
