Art is for Everyone, Wednesday, February 1, 2023
"Tony's feeling a little under the weather today," Steve said with a smile to the students as they arrived, "so we'll do a project without him just this once."
He gestured to the white wall behind him where he'd hammed a series of nails into it. "Today we're going to explore string art. We'll arrange colored thread between points to form geometric patterns. Even though we're forming straight lines are formed by the string, the slightly different angles and metric positions at which strings intersect gives the appearance of curves, which is fun and mathematical. String art has gotten much more complex thanks to artists using computers to design their works--you can even make photorealistic string art these days--and because string is a three-dimensional media, you can make really interactive displays."
He pushed a few buttons on the Danger Shop controls and one of the corners of the room filled with giant tape art displays. "Go for a walk through that display, get inspired, and then come back over here and work on a project of your own," Steve said.
