Today was a whirlwind of a day! This was Diorama Day in room 102!
The project started last week as we explored the work of various diorama artists. Lyn Moreno and Shannon are 2 artists who use cut paper to create their dioramas. Artist from Iraq, Alamedy Diorama creates fantastic highly realistic miniature worlds using only recycled materials.
Then we drew some basic plans of the dioramas we wanted to create. Then, today was the big day of creation. We were artists, engineers, mathematicians, and art gallery curators as we worked through the process of turning plans and dreams into reality and then showcasing our work for other classes.
Here are the masterpieces!
