Paper Sculptures

Medium:  Paper
Grade: 4-6

This was a project that I used to introduce the concept of organic shapes and the art of manipulating paper to create a a large sculpture.  Students were asked to create one small shape with paper, such as a coil, a strigil or a loop.  After finding their desired shapre they recreated it many times. 

When they had at least 40 of their desired shape they started to glue them together with their handy dandy glue stick to create a new form.  

The final product shows a very bright and airy sculpture that almost looks as if it is floating.

enjoy :)
