On Thursday, we celebrated the creation of our own public art pieces. We each put our artwork on our desks with our artist's note, then we walked around the gallery to view each other's work. We each had one person who we needed to give written feedback to.Today, we will take home our marks and peer feedback forms.
Below are some student comments from the project. You can see that we all learned a lot from the process. Working with clay (the medium most people chose) was harder than we expected.

| Giving peer feedback. |
"I saw that everybody had a unique art piece and worked really hard to make it. I thought all of them were amazing." ~ Sophia"I didn't exactly like studying public art pieces but it was fun to make them. I like to build things because it's art." ~ Abigail
"I've learned that some people who did a plan added extra things and then when they found out that it broke they had to go to a plan B." ~ Bianca
"I find that everybody that put toothpicks, popsicle sticks in their clay, they all fell out and broke. Also people that had really dry clay, fell apart." ~ Priya
"I learned that everybody struggled and everybody chose different art pieces to show that everyone's different. Art can do a lot to people." ~ Jaxton"We worked really hard and it took us a long time. Sometimes we thought through our art and we didn't like it so we had to restart and it worked out in the end." ~ Desiree
"This was a project that took us through stress and building something, and having it fall apart, and having to rebuilt it, and getting really mad at it, and after a while, when I was using popsicle sticks to make my art stand out, they collapsed. Then I decided that it doesn't have to have popsicle sticks so I moved on from there and it is the way it is. Sometimes life isn't how you planned it." ~ Owen
