The Art of Science

During this Autumn term within the Art Department, Year 9 have been focusing on looking at ‘Close-Up Perspectives’ and creating art inspired by a variety of Close-Up imagery. In the second part of the term, we decided to explore the connection between Art and Science, using colourful and abstract forms that we can get when looking at microscopic images of bacteria and mould.

The students were not afraid to get their hands messy and really got stuck in to create some interesting effects. The final outcomes will be collaborated into a large installation piece within the school.

Focusing on the Russian artist Dasha Plesen who created Petri dishes full of colourful, textured, and abstract forms, the students experimented with powdered paint on a variety of materials, considering how the colours blended, what patterns they could make and how to build up layers of texture.
