About this School Project (Jen Stark Drips)
In this engaging art project, our artists explored the vibrant and intricate works of contemporary artist Jen Stark. Through a series of discussions and visual presentations, students discovered Stark’s unique approach to blending free-form and geometric shapes, as well as her use of contrast, pattern, and repetition.
Following this introduction, students collaborated to create a stunning mural that embodies these concepts. Using paint sticks and paper, they translated their understanding of Stark's techniques into their own designs, experimenting with bold colors and dynamic forms.
The mural process encouraged students to embrace creativity while reinforcing their knowledge of visual elements in art. By focusing on free-form shapes and geometric patterns, they developed a collective artwork that reflects their interpretation of Stark’s style. This project not only enhanced their artistic skills but also fostered teamwork and self-expression in the classroom. The final mural serves as a vibrant testament to their learning and creativity, showcasing the influence of contemporary art in a tangible, collaborative way.
