The children were encouraged to listen to a curated selection of music from Dear You that ranged from gentle, slow melodies to fast-paced, intense rhythms. 저희는 DearU 프로그램의 마지막 미술 수업에서 아이들과 함께 예술을 독특하고 다차원적인 방식으로 접근한 새로운 경험을 나누었습니다.
Listening
Finding their own meaning in the artistic process
2021, China, Ukraine1 CommentDraw or write what you hear
2018, China, FinlandCommentDuring the third project students were asked to listen to audio recordings from their friends in China. They were instructed to draw or write anything they heard that sounded like a word that was familiar to them. They could use Swedish, Finnish, and English words for the listening exercise. As we listened students, wrote words that they heard or that came to mind and drew pictures to accompany the words. When the listening exercises was over the students used mixed methods of collage and coloring to complete their images. Using bits cut from maps they created lines connecting their images to one another. They really enjoyed listening to what their friends had to say. Thanks so much to our friends in China! We really enjoyed collaborating with you on this project!
Sincerely,
