Residency with Kidspace at MASS MoCA
We are so excited to be working with Kidspace at MASS MoCA in an artist teaching residency!
Earlier this month, Illuminations a technology-based exhibition by artist Adam Chapman opened at Kidspace. As part of that, we will be working for the next few months with the fourth graders at three schools, (Sullivan Elementary, Greylock Elementary, and Brayton Elementary), working with art and technology.
Working alongside Kidspace interns, Jo and Kristen, we’ve been looking at how computers needs instructions, how birds fly in flocks, and how artists through the ages have been using rules and structures to create images. In the collage above, students combined the images they individually collected related to two separate words they picked from a hat (“dots” and “sink”) to create a new image.
This week, we go into the computer lab. Thanks, Kidspace!
