09:30AM 12:30PM Virtual Camp Carlos: Recreating the Surface: Department / Organization: Carlos MuseumMembership Link: https://carlos.emory.edu/joinEvery culture has its own distinctive set of symbols, motifs, and patterns that are applied to the surfaces of various forms. The jaguar is a prominent Meso-American motif etched into pottery. Figural and animal motifs and geometric patterns are found on the painted surfaces of Greek black and red-figure pottery as well as on the elaborately painted surfaces of Egyptian coffins. With teaching artist Ana Vizurraga students will examine work from the Carlos Museum collections and discuss the design elements and techniques that artists use to embellish surfaces. Over the course of the week, children will create their own black- and red-figure paintings on premade two-dimensional terracotta forms, painted screens inspired by a West African Baltu one with stylized figures and motifs, and miniature versions of Egyptian coffins using paper panels, decorated with watercolors, that fold into a lidded box. Appropriate for ages 8-12. All materials will be provided. + ZOOM Campus Events
