Mirka Mora Inspired Dolls

The grade 3 and 4 students at Boroondara Park Primary School have been working  fastidiously on. They then began by looking extremely closely at various photographs of the artist Mirka’s works, many taken at the wonderful exhibition at Heide Gallery, Victoria. The capable year 3/4 visual art students then designed their very own Mirka inspired soft textile doll. They began by then transferring their design onto soft calico, and with the help of their parents, excitedly used school sewing machines to carefully construct the basic outline shape. After vigorously  stuffing, the dolls were then brightly painted with chromatemp paints. Details were then added using permanent markers, Posca pens and fine liners. Zart prides itself in supporting young artists in their visual arts journey and supporting art teachers with skills and knowledge.
