Contemporary Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, sometimes known as the Princess of Polka Dots was part of the inspiration for Year 4 and their surrealist tree sculptures. The students, earlier in the year had researched her pumpkin sculpture on Naoshima, Japan's island of art. This time we looked at her installation entitled "Ascension of Polkadots on the Trees". Using the concepts of Fire and Flood, these young artists painted the inside of their little bottles and using wire and mesh attached a tree branch. Again using wire and mesh they sculpted tiny animals, insects, nests and eggs. If you look closely you will see a beehive - how creative!
