On Friday last week, the group was set a challenge... We were all going to do a burst (one session) project together. The rules are that everyone is to complete the same tasks within the same time limit and that noone is allowed to say no or I'm not doing that.
Sounds pretty hard right? And you are correct it is a challenge but our REALISE group members got through it and produced these AMAZING bags as seen in the previous photo post! Well done guys and gals!
Not only that but we could identify individual skills and techniques that had been used and recognize the value of practicing these! Brill!
Next week... Me But Better!

Week One Review
The first week has flown by and we have completed our first project together; the visual map of me.
In this project, you work on top of photographs of yourself to create a highly unique and personal piece of artwork that speaks volumes about your current skills and your potential.
Here are two great examples from Connor and Bekkii.
Connor spent so long created his awesome rock hands and pop art inspired trainers he forgot about his head! So that was packed up and taken home in his backpack, hopefully to be returned on Wednesday!
Bekki's random collages clearly show her personality and the rainbow in the bottom segment goes some way to explaining her feelings regarding gay rights.
Great work guys, keep it up!

Friday's Highlights
Friday highlights: Our first external visitor, Jayne Wilson, came in and introduced us to Art Psychotherapy, which is a form of therapy where artwork is used as visual communication. She explained about her progression into this career and what you have to do during training. Jayne also delivered an activity based around Mandala's and below are our results. Can you guess which Mandala belongs to who?

Visual Map of Me
Today we started our Visual Map of Me project which will run till Friday.
Visual Map of Me is based on four photographs of body parts and four questions:
Head: Who am I?
Hands: What am I good at?
Body: What do I like/dislike?
Feet: Where am I going?
Mixed media is used to work in layers on top of the photographs to try and answer the questions using words and pictures.
Keep watching for the final results!
