Process for “Kinderhaven”
Kinderhaven (2012)
Kinderhaven Preschool Academy is a place that aims to stimulate the growth of all the facets of the personalities of the preschoolers. When Kinderhaven needed some decorative artwork for the barren exterior of its building, I was chosen to design and execute the project.
I made a design of a tree and root system and had the children (ages 3 - 7) make clay pieces or stars, leaves, butterflies and worms to fit into a mosaic which would be installed on the outside of the building. All the children can see the work they’ve done, and be proud of the fact that they helped build the art piece.
