Image: http://mystamps.bizland.com/stwire.htm • constructing spatial drawings that we can walk under, over and around. • creating optical illusion drawings to interact with the public and surrounding environment. In our last lesson we learnt that “today’s artists are”… • interested in how a drawing sounds and looks. • creating land drawings using the colour, shape and texture of the land for inspiration. • using technology to create drawings that make us think about the technology we use. Lets start this lesson by exploring “Drawing Identity”.

James uses piano wire to create a wall drawing which people can see and listen to. By looking at the materials James has chosen, we can instantly see this artist has a passion for music and art, and has knowledge and experience with using musical instruments . Like materials The Picasso, NZ andartist toolsSimon that anIngram artist chooses likes to push to use thecan boundaries express identity of art and in the how Iwas wonder if he what played same a painting way is patterns made. and Looking portraits at thedo. materials Pablo Picasso used his regarded drawing as one can we the We can tell by the materials Simon has used that for he is very interested in aofmusical th century instrument when he was greatest already tell painters about of Simon the 20 and what and hebut might wasbe also interested known push the boundaries of technology, particularly machines robots.

For British artist Andy Goldsworthy working with nature is the best way to make art. We can tell by the materials Andy uses in his art that he likes being outdoors and enjoys what nature has to offer. We can also tell that Andy only likes to use the natural elements around him. Maybe Andy is thinking about ways of making art that shows how beautiful nature is and that art doesn’t only have to be in a gallery?

From symbols and patterns to the materials we use to draw, they all help express parts of our identity. I wonder in 50 years time what new materials artists will use to express their identity? As we have seen, drawing can express identity in Let’s recap many on what we have learnt so far… different ways… What have we learnt so far? Identity can be expressed • through portraiture and appearance, both of ourselves and those around us. • through pattern, symbols and imagery that we use and create. • through the materials we use when we make our art. During your visit youenjoyed will experience We hope you have learninga range of artworks a 3D about the art ofincluding drawing… Drawing! We look forward to having you all here End of lesson
