CCA Derry~Londonderry is delighted to announce the new School's Programme Project OBJECTS, BODIES, SHAPES AND EXCHANGE.
Artist Priya Mistry has designed a workshop for Primary 4 children in Sion Mills Primary School and Strabane Primary School. Priya shares ideas, process and a way of thinking. You can hear Priya speaking about this in the video below.
Using a range of selected materials including Pom Poms, Hula Hoops, space blankets and fabrics, children will complete a series of playful tasks. Including thinking of their bodies as shapes, volumes and lines. There will be movement and action as children make shapes and move around the space. Each school will complete the workshop on the same day, the action documented, printed out and sent to the other school to create an exchange and to see how each school responds to the tasks. This workshop follows Priya's residency at CCA in 2021 The Labbody Workshop: Tools, Folds, Rolls & Frames.
Supported by the National Lottery through the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Derry City & Strabane District Council.
