SPECIFIC MATERIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENTOF ACTIVITIES

The sessions of this course are based on research and experimentation with materials by students, which requires an investigation based on image documentation and oftherecycling of materials for art education. Moreover, the methodology adopted requires for a good developmentthat students bring to the classroom specialised materials for the developing of art activities (brushes and paints, among others).

*Teachers will recommend the most suitable material for planned activities, which will have a sustainable cost and can be shared among students. We will search for mechanisms to ensure that the student can have it in case you do not have the necessary resources.

Regarding the materials that will be used during the subject in the workshop sessions, priority will be given to natural elements and recycled materials.
