Developing project. Lorenco House.

3/3/2022

 

Planning so far:
Exploring drawing and printing techniques around a tree theme. 
Looking at the work of Paul Klee both in terms of technique and imagery. 
Need to make it accessible and inspiring for all including those who are visually impaired. So use of tactile materials and drawing techniques.

Aim of project:
Foster confidence
New skills
Social
Play

Outcomes:
Tree artworks to go in corridor by lounge, with tree elements (leaves, seeds, flowers) and creatures (especially birds) as basis for artwork which explores deeper themes and interests of the resident participants, such as food, special trees they like/remember from their diverse backgrounds.

Individual artwork within a collaborative work. 




​
Initially searched Klee tree and leaves.
​Love the variety of images. I don't remember seeing single leaf images before which are strong in their simplicity, joyful. 

Wondering whether to use the red tree house image as a timeslip in the first session. It's called The Tree of Houses. 

Thinking about how these will inspire drawing. I like that  Trees and leaves can become quite abstract quite quickly. Excellent start for patterns. 








Birds.
Characters. Animated. Communing with each other.

Also wondering about using one of these as Timeslip. 

I like the idea of using a Klee image as the timeslip. so we are really looking at an artwork.  


Thinking more about suitable image to inspire Time slip. Really like the red house of trees but it is maybe too small and textured, plus no characters in it - just the not very clear dive bombing bird on the top left. 

So have been trying to find a good treehouse photo with people in it, which has proved quite hard. eventually found better images by googling 'vintage photo of people with tree house. Much better. the first two are of a the treehouse at the Kit Kat club in the twenties. But I think I will use the last, titled 'A treehouse for grownups' and dated 1961. 

Lots to inspire some  stories there.
