A cross-curricular land art project

Year 7: understanding of a contemporary art form – Land Art. Created by Jenny Sutton Kirby

What did the school want to achieve?

This event was for year seven and the aims were to develop skills in and understanding of a contemporary art form – Land Art. As a corollary the school aimed to develop deeper understanding of environmental issues including the role of the arboretum, re-cycling, sustainability, respect for the natural world, and ‘awe and wonder’. It was intended to develop group working skills and, for some, to develop a further link to craft activity.
