BLAST 2021 - Coláiste Éamann Rís
Artist Julie Forrester worked with the students at Coláiste Éamann Rís and their teacher, Lorraine Naughton.
Beginning with drawing and printmaking, the students discussed the David Hockney story, 'The Little Sea Hare', and made drawings exploring the theme as it arose individually for each student.
They shared their findings and began design work on the theme “concealing and revealing”.
Students developed work into etchings from their preparatory drawings.
In later sessions, the students brought the theme into ceramic work using the techniques of slab building and clay modelling before finishing their pieces by glazing them.
