Thursday, 10 November (Art project!)

A week ago (ish), I promised to post pictures of my art project.  Here they are:

The photo above is of Jessica Pautz, Kimberly Topham, and me with our project.  On the side of the stairs you can see the colors of the rainbow (the bottom strip is actually purple, it just whited out in the picture), to represent the Rainbow Nation - that's what's South Africa is called.  The picture to the left is the tops of the stairs.  We have a word to describe South Africa on each stair, and a picture to represent the words.  From the top to the bottom step: Hospitality, Determination, Diversity, Unity, Traditional.  The picture on the right is the front of the stairs, as you can see in the top pictures.  The steps make a South African flag, but instead of using solid colors, we used sunset pictures for the red, water for the blue, plants for the green, and coal for the black.  The goal of the project was to show our thoughts on what symbolizes South Africa, through art.  We turned the project in today.
