In today’s art lesson, Roderic Camilleri from the School of Arts will focus on the technique of frottage, which involves using different materials to create artwork. This method, associated with modern surrealist artists, will be explored as students, particularly those in their eighth year, engage their imagination to create surreal creatures and animals. The lesson will cover learning objectives that include experimenting with various textured materials and using tools like scissors to craft designs. Historical context will be provided, highlighting the contributions of artists like Max Ernst in the 20th century and the influence of surrealism on art.
