If you missed it, yesterday's Guardian Weekend was an absolute banger, not least because of this.

‘In our species’ history, the urge to shape matter predates language. Sculpture is the most resistant and atavistic of all artforms, but it is also the most radical’ artreview.com/antony-gorml...

A brilliant article and much needed reminder for me this week in finding hope!

When I was a boy, my hero was Ray Harryhausen. If you don't recognise the name, you'll recognise his work. I used to watch his animation work and dream . . . imagine if you could grow up and still be able to make stuff, be imaginative, and get paid for it. 😮 Dare to dream darrellwakelam.com #edusky

Year 4 have been studying the street art of Egyptian artist Aya Tarek. Linked to Human Rights, their compositions painted in acrylic are inspired by equality, diversity, education, privacy and protection. #PrimaryArt @penahay.bsky.social @begley.bsky.social

Inspired by Windrush, Year 5 created these mixed media compositions using printing & drawing. Focusing on themes of migration & journeys we learned about the incredible work of artist Ade Adesina. 🤩 #PrimaryArt #Windrush @sophieleach.bsky.social @darrellwakelam.bsky.social @artteachjess.bsky.social

Without creative people, you'd only see what was presented to you, and not what was hidden below the surface. 😁 #edusky

Hello. #art #inprogress #ceramics

Reception classes loved painting this collaborative painting using pallet knives inspired by Van Gogh & their literacy text ‘Katie & the Starry Night’. They were fascinated by the textures and shadows once dry. Can’t wait to hang it! #PrimaryArt @sophieleach.bsky.social @darrellwakelam.bsky.social

Studying the work of Henry Moore and Tony Cragg, Year 3 have explored sculpture vocabulary to create these vibrant sculptures made from clay and wire inspired by weathering and natural forms. 🤩 #PrimaryArt @sophieleach.bsky.social @nsead.bsky.social @begley.bsky.social
