MURAL ART

@HKMLC Queen Maud Secondary School -in 2023

I am lucky that I can be an instructor at my alma mater for the mural art through expressive art. This time, students have to do their own research, concept design and execution on a real wall. The theme of this project is about green technology and ecological balance. The design of the artwork presents the creatures from the sea and sky can live harmony in future.

After my students finished all of the paint, they learnt how to collage the magazine papers, used coffee filter papers and coffee beans on wall. It represents the idea of green technology.

These photos show that they started from chaos in their group work. They drew what they wanted by their own style on the transparent sheet. As a result, they said they felt confused and messy about the artwork. They did't satisfied on it.
However, after I played music with them and asked them to play their own instruments in right time by their sense, they found that awareness on others' did and the environment makes harmony happen.
Afterward, they did the group artwork again. This time, the students satisfied what they did because of more harmony. It also matches the theme of ecological balance. We have to aware the creature and our living environment.
