Oak Terrace Elementary
We studied the work of artist Louise Nevelson during the creation of these found-object sculptures.  Each student built a small box out of balsa wood, then collected objects to place in his or her sculpture.  We discussed visual movement, space, light, and shadow as we arranged the items. Once the items were glued in place, students chose black, bronze, or white paint.  Sculptures of the same color were grouped together to make several larger finished sulptures.
