Grade 7 Ceramics Looked Good Enough to Eat!
Middle School art teachers Ms. Barbanchon and Ms. Inglis tasked their students with turning clay into mouth-watering masterpieces that were on display at last week’s MS/SS Music Night & Art Exhibition.
According to Ms. Barbanchon, students began this project by creating a series of drawings for the Draw and Snack sketch assignment, illustrating a food item in four stages of being eaten. The next step was to transform one of those sketches into a realistic clay food sculpture.
Artists often sculpt everyday foods to make them look playful or hyper-realistic. Students used clay construction techniques and painting skills to bring their snack design to life in 3D form. The results looked good enough to eat! - Play Video
Land Acknowledgment
The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
