college art....


"Mary and Joseph" or "What I did in school on Monday"

Increasingly, there is a very negative atmosphere in college these days. The general feeling is that we have a million assignments that we are drowning in, while our energy still goes on attending lectures where we might spend (as on Monday just gone) an hour folding, tearing and scrunching paper to make a nativity scene in low relief, that nobody will ever see...
I hope that one day I'll do this with my future students and look back on it and be glad that instead of cramming for an Irish grammar exam (current concern.....oh so many rules to learn) I was making 3D stick figures that give no clue to their identity....
