This term we have been looking at the Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky. He was one of the pioneers of abstract art. Wassily suffered a condition called synaesthesia, a neurological condition in which information meant to stimulate one of your senses stimulates several of your senses.

When he heard music, he saw colours and when he was painting he heard music.

During art we have been creating artworks to music and discussing the emotions that are evoked by these pieces. We have used a variety of media and the elements of line, colour and shape to create artworks to music.

Several Year 5/6 students were also involved in creating mosaics which portray a variety of emotions.

I would like to thank Rivoland Tiles for donating the tiles, Bink Pavers for their generous discount and Adam Ciuffetelli for his advice and free glue.
