Some children in Kilkenny recently visited an exhibition in the Butler Gallery that looked at constructions created by the artist, Tony O'Malley. After looking and discussing his work, they headed to the park to create some constructions of their own ...
There are several unusual objects in this construction. Can you identify them all? Which ones are man-made objects and which ones are natural objects? Could you construct something from found objects around your house or school?
Look at this lovely construction– could it be a musical instrument of some sort? What kind of title would you give this piece of art? Zoom into it here
Thanks to Jean Tormey of the Butler Gallery, Gemma McGirr and, of course, all the children involved in the Solas workshop for sharing their creativity with us.
Have you made something in clay or painted a lovely
picture or constructed something fabulous?
